Well Doinge Is The Fruite Of Doinge Well

Herrick

This period is big with events. Fraught with history,

it repeats the past and portends much for the future. [15]

The Scriptural metaphors,—of the woman in travail,

the great red dragon that stood ready to devour the child

as soon as it was born, and the husbandmen that said,

“This is the heir: come, let us kill him, that the in-

heritance may be ours,”—are type and shadow of this [20]

hour.
