    On wing impetuous, a black sullen soul . . .
    Less base the fear of death than fear of life.
    O Britain! infamous for suicide.

For who would bear the whips and scorns of time,
Th' oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely

That patient merit of th' unworthy takes,
When he himself might his quietus make
With a bare bodkin?

Duty requires we calmly wait the summons,
Nor dare to stir till Heaven shall give permission.
