~   ~   ~   Sentence 29   ~   ~   ~

A bastard zeal, of different kinds it shows, And now with rage, and now religion glows: The frantic soul bright reason's path defies, Now creeps on earth, now triumphs in the skies; Swims in the seas of error, and explores, Through midnight mists, the fluctuating shores; From wave to wave in rocky channel glides, And sinks in woe, or on presumption slides; In pride exalted, or by shame deprest, An angel-devil, or a human-beast.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 36   ~   ~   ~

Vicars must with discretion go astray, Whilst bishops may be damn'd the nearest way; So puny robbers individuals kill, When hector-heroes murder as they will.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 151   ~   ~   ~

if you blast, at once consume my bays, And damn me not with mutilated praise.
