Стр. 109 - So shall the World go on, To good malignant, to bad men benign, Under her own weight groaning, till the day Appear of respiration to the just And vengeance to the wicked, at return Of Him so lately promised to thy aid, The Woman's Seed — obscurely then foretold, Now amplier known thy Saviour and thy Lord...
Стр. 249 - Contemptuous of all honourable rule, Yet bartering freedom and the poor man's life For gold, as at a market ! The sweet words Of Christian promise, words that even yet Might stem destruction, were they wisely preached, Are muttered o'er by men, whose tones proclaim How flat and wearisome they feel their trade : Bank scoffers some, but most too indolent To deem them falsehoods or to know their truth.
