George MacDonald - Thou AlsoGeorge MacDonald - Thou Also
Work rating: Low


Cry out upon the crime, and then let slip The dogs of hate, whose hanging muzzles track The bloody secret; let the welkin crack Reverberating, while ye dance and skip About the horrid blaze! or else ye strip, More secretly, for the avenging rack, Him who hath done the deed, till, oozing black Ye watch the anguish from his nostrils drip, And all the knotted limbs lie quivering! Or, if your hearts disdain such banqueting, With wide and tearless eyes go staring through The murder cells! but think—that, if your knees Bow not to holiness, then even in you Lie deeper gulfs and blacker crimes than these.
