الصفحة 417 - Call for the robin-red-breast and the wren, Since o'er shady groves they hover, And with leaves and flowers do cover The friendless bodies of unburied men. Call unto his funeral dole The ant, the field-mouse, and the mole To rear him hillocks that shall keep him warm And (when gay tombs are robbed) sustain no harm, But keep the wolf far thence that's foe to men, For with his nails he'll dig them up again.
الصفحة 163 - But it is my painful duty to observe, that the disturbances in Ireland, to which I adverted at the close of the last session, have greatly increased. A spirit of insubordination and violence has risen to the most fearful height, rendering life and property insecure, defying the authority of the law, and threatening the most fatal consequences, if not promptly and effectually repressed.
الصفحة 417 - cause he died in a quarrel ; But I have an answer for them : " Let holy church receive him duly, Since he paid the church-tithes truly." His wealth is summ'd, and this is all his store; This poor men get, and great men get no more. Now the wares are gone, we may shut up shop. Bless you all, good people! [Exeunt Cornelia, Zanche, and Ladies.
