"I think you are very cruel to treat a helpless man in this style." "Indeed, sir, I have not taken away your crutches. When you spoke of a helpless man, to whom did you refer?" "I thought you once said that mercy was 'twice bless'd." "That's a truism that has become a little trite. Don't you think Mr. Eltinge will like my bouquet?"

But independent souls will brave All hardships to be free; No more I weep to cross the wave, My native land to see.
