The hymn, whose majesty of imagery a majesty derived from the Scriptures themselves and whose resonant cadence gave it much of the character, in English, of the sublime Dies Irae, in Latin, was as follows:
And the maid fled the kitchen, which had become practically dangerous, to attend on Innes' wants in the front parlour. TANTAENE IRAE? Has the reader perceived the reason? Since Frank's coming there were no more hours of gossip over the supper tray! All his blandishments were in vain; he had started handicapped on the race for Mrs. Elliott's favour.
Happy is the man who shall have gotten into the grave before that day! Blessed will be the woman who has never given suck! Yes, the best thing for me is to die and I am going to do so. I shall not see that Dies Irae! I shall be in my grave!" And breathing heavily, the journalist again leaned back in his chair, as though about to faint.
Ah, poor wretch, when was your lip pressed before by such pure kisses? Amantium Irae Frankness and kindness like Amelia's were likely to touch even such a hardened little reprobate as Becky. She returned Emmy's caresses and kind speeches with something very like gratitude, and an emotion which, if it was not lasting, for a moment was almost genuine.
It is doubtless true that the thirteenth century was the century in which imaginative thought reached its highest brilliancy, when Albertus Magnus and Saint Thomas Aquinas taught, when Saint Francis and Saint Clara lived, and when Thomas of Celano wrote the Dies Irae.
Remember that if his wretched soul is lost at last, it will be required at the hands of my son, in that dread day- -Dies Irae! Dies Illa! when we shall stand at the final judgment!
I do not know whether you yet feel that the position of your boat on the river also depends entirely on the reign of law, or whether, as your churches and concert-rooms are privileged in the possession of organs blown by steam, you are learning yourselves to sing by gas, and expect the Dies Irae to the announced by a steam-trumpet.
Thus did I innocently anticipate in my own person that dies irae which I had prepared for my imaginary town. I took no further interest in Millerism and in neighbor White's big house and ascension robe. After this I made new and less destructible worlds which continue to this day. But the delusion did not expire by my neglect.
That foeman was worthier his celestial steel. "Turn homeward, angel, now, and melt with ruth!" Not his to do vengeance on the man Walter Tyrrel. Not his to play the divine part of vindicator. In his madness even Trevennack was magnanimous. Leave the creature to the torment of his own guilty soul. Do angels care for thrusts of such as he? Tantaene animis coelestibus irae?
If a man has no great occasion for breaking out, he will end by taking advantage of the smallest, and by working it up into something great by the aid of his imagination; for, however small it may be, it is enough to rouse his anger Quantulacunque adeo est occasio, sufficit irae and then he will carry it as far as he can and may.
