They build too low who build beneath the skies.
Affliction is a good man's shining time.
A tardy vengeance shares the tyrant's guilt.
Praise, more divine than prayer; prayer points our ready path to heaven; praise is already there.
Day buries day; month, month; and year the year: Our life is but a chain of many deaths.
Men may live fools, but fools they cannot die.
