deep-soul'd

Updated: June 20, 2025

And well may thoughtful Hearts Heave with foreboding swell and heavy fears, To mark, how mad opinion doth infect Thy children; how thine apostolic claims And love maternal are regarded now, By creedless Vanity, or careless Vice. For time there was, when peerless Hooker wrote, And deep-soul'd Bacon taught the world to think, When thou wert paramount, thy cause sublime!

Edmund Burke - Selections from the Speeches and Writings of Edmund Burke
