We cry e'en as thy footsteps downward tend:

"The king is dead! long live the king!"

THEOLOGY

There is a heaven, for ever, day by day,

The upward longing of my soul doth tell me so.

There is a hell, I 'm quite as sure; for pray,

If there were not, where would my neighbours go?

RESIGNATION

Long had I grieved at what I deemed abuse;

But now I am as grain within the mill.
