    They act as if they supposed that to be very sanguine about the general improvement of mankind is a virtue that relieves them from taking trouble about any improvement in particular.

    He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are

    He hath loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword;
