THE SAME CONTINUED What have I done? What gross impiety Prompted my hand thus against God and good? Was there not joy on Earth enough for me That I must scale the Heaven where you stood, And with my sinful blood pollute your blood? You were the type of wise sweet sanctity, Of that unearthly half of womanhood Which well redeems the rest. Oh, Juliet, we Sinned in a temple, and our tears to--day Appeal in vain to Heaven which dares not hear. God is not always mocked. And thus we pay Our uttermost debt unheeded, tear on tear And scoff on scoff and sin heaped up on sin, While there is justice on the Earth to men.
