Follow after charity, and begin with Santa Teresa. Forbid it, mighty Love, let no fond hate Of names or words so far prejudicate; Souls are not Spaniards too; one friendly flood Of baptism blends them all into one blood. What soul soe'er in any language can Speak heaven like hers, is my soul's countryman.

Lead me, O Zeus most great, And thou, Eternal Fate: What way soe'er thy will doth bid me travel That way I'll follow without fret or cavil. Or if I evil be And spurn thy high decree, Even so I still shall follow, soon or late. Thus in the will alone consists the difference of good or ill for us; in either case Nature's great law fulfils itself infallibly.

No terrible sea of division could part those whom love could bind together. The peace of God stole once more into her heart. "How loud soe'er the world may roar, We know love will be conqueror." Meanwhile Raeburn paced to and fro in grievous pain The fact that his pain could scarcely perhaps have been comprehended by the generality of people did not make it less real or less hard to bear.

Benevolence calls for compliance, for, 'curst be the spring, he adds with a change of Pope's verse, 'how well soe'er it flow, that tends to make one worthy man my foe! 'I do, he wrote in the London Magazine for March 1780, 'fairly acknowledge that I love drinking; that I have a constitutional inclination to indulge in fermented liquors, and that if it were not for the restraints of reason and religion, I am afraid that I should be as constant a votary of Bacchus as any man.

And thus would say many an one of Achaians and Trojans: "Zeus most glorious, most great, and all ye immortal gods, which folk soe'er be first to sin against the oaths, may their brains be so poured forth upon the earth even as this wine, theirs and their children's; and let their wives be made subject unto strangers." So spake they, but the son of Kronos vouchsafed not yet fulfilment.

Sincerity, to that we are enjoined, For I do in our blessed law-book find, That duties, how well done soe'er they seem, With our great God, are but of small esteem If not sincerely done; then have a care For hypocrites are hateful everywhere.

We know naught of any wealth of common store, but what spoil soe'er we took from captured cities hath been apportioned, and it beseemeth not to beg all this back from the folk. Nay, yield thou the damsel to the god, and we Achaians will pay thee back threefold and fourfold, if ever Zeus grant us to sack some well-walled town of Troy-land."

She all alone the lion-hearted maid Fought with the wolf, and from him snatched the lamb Which he was bearing in his bloody jaws. How brave soe'er the head this helm adorned, It cannot grace a worthier one than hers! Relate what new disasters have occurred. What tidings brought the fugitives? BERTRAND. May God Have pity on our land, and save the king!

I bless the cardinal, my honored uncle, And also Henry Guise, my noble cousin. I bless the holy father, the vicegerent Of Christ on earth, who will, I trust, bless me. I bless the King of Spain, who nobly offered Himself as my deliverer, my avenger. They are remembered in my will: I hope That they will not despise, how poor soe'er They be, the presents of a heart which loves them.

God bless him who said: Every son of woman, how long soe'er his life be, Must one day be carried upon the bulging bier. How shall he have pleasure in life or hold it goodly, He unto whose cheeks the dust must soon adhere? Then, when he had made an end of condoling with him, he charged him not to absent himself from the Divan and returned to his palace.
