Unfelt and unregarded: now behold

The earthly passions war against the heavenly!

Pride against love; ambition and revenge

Against devotion and compliancy—

Her glorious beams adversity hath blunted,

And coming nearer to our quiet view,

The original clay of coarse mortality

Hardens and flaws around her.


One day of bitter and severe delight.[VI. p. 60.]
