CHARLES. Blood hath been poured forth freely, and in vain The hand of heaven is visibly against me; In every battle is my host o'erthrown, I am rejected of my parliament, My capital, my people, hail me foe, Those of my blood, my nearest relatives, Forsake me and betray and my own mother Doth nurture at her breast the hostile brood.
Even now their polished columns and pilasters lie o'erthrown and broken, o'ergrown with acanthus and myrtle, but sparkling still, and flouting the slovenly art of modern workmen. Is it sewers, aqueducts, viaducts? "Why, we have lost the art of making a road lost it with the world's greatest models under our very eye. Is it sepulchres of the dead?
'Yet tears to human suffering are due, And mortal hopes defeated and o'erthrown Are mourned by man, and not by man alone As fondly we believe. Poor Richard Leyburn! Yet where had the defeat lain? 'Was he happy in his school life? he asked gently. 'Was teaching what he liked?
The Lord of highmost Heaven to grant my prayer * Pray I, whom love of lady fair hath slain; And as I'm clean o'erthrown by love and fear, * To grant me speedy union deign, oh deign!" Then he folded the scroll and gave it to the old woman, bringing out at the same time a purse of four hundred dinars.
Nothing can be imagined at once more powerful or more pathetic than that picture of a "noble mind o'erthrown," alternating between crushed, hopeless misery and wild excitement thirsting for the rest and peace that only death can bestow, yet shrinking from the fearful leap into the dim unknown beyond the grave. The scene with the Queen is inimitably grand.
Gray moss has clad the altar stone, The holy image is o'erthrown, The bell has ceased to toll, The long ribb'd aisles are burst and shrunk, The holy shrines to ruin sunk, Departed is the pious monk, God's blessing on his soul!
Their seats and their tables lying, O'erthrown in their sudden flight. "Then, oh!"
I have too much betray'd my Passion for him, I must recal it, if I can I must: I will for should I yield, my power's o'erthrown, And what's a Woman when that glory's gone? SCENE II. The Apartments of Alcippus. Enter Alcippus and Pisaro. Pis. You seem'd then to be pleas'd with what she said. Alcip. And then methought I was so, But yet even then I fear'd she did dissemble.
He grasps the ponderous hatchet, and, Homerically speaking "Now toils the hero: trees on trees o'erthrown, Fall crackling round him, and the forests groan." These, "lopp'd and lighten'd of their branchy load," he assaults singly. Heaving the huge axe with lusty sweeping blows, he brings it down. Great wedgy splinters fly and strew the plain like autumn leaves.
The barriers upon knowledge are o'erthrown; The spirit that, with pleasure soon matured, Has in your easy triumphs been inured To hasten through an artist-whole of graces, Nature's more distant columns duly places. And overtakes her on her pathway lone.
