you will thunder along the cliff
break retreat get fresh strength
gather and pour weight upon the beach.”

“When lovely woman stoops to folly,
And finds too late that men betray,
What charm can soothe her melancholy,
What art can wash her guilt away?
The only art her guilt to cover,
To hide her shame from every eye,
To give repentance to her lover,
And wring his bosomis to die.”
—Oliver Goldsmith (1730?1774)

Were thicker than itself with brothers blood,
Is there not rain enough in the sweet heavens
To wash it white as snow?”
