Yea, God still laughs to scorn

The man by evil tide of passions borne,

Swayed by thoughts wild and hot,

When he beholdeth one whose boast was high

He ne'er should know it, sunk in misery,

And all unable round the point to steer;

And so his former pride of prosperous days

He wrecks upon the reefs of Vengeance drear,

And dies with none to weep him or to praise.

THE END
