      Charges into earth in birth after birth
      Ever fresh and fresh." 
      -Robert Frost


    "The quality of mercy is not strained.
      It droppeth as the gentle rain fron heaven...
      And earthly power doth then show likest God's
      When mercy seasons justice."

    -Shakespeare, The Merchant of Venice

    "The God of power, as he did ride
      In his majestick robes of glorie
      Resolv'd to light; and so one day
      He did descend, undressing all the way."
