“Angels are bright still, though the brightest fell.Though all things foul would wear the brows of grace,Yet Grace must still look so.”
“Though there is not always grace where there is the fear of hell, yet, to be sure, there is no grace where there is no fear of God.”
“What the worm was to the corpse, his sins would be to the painted image on the canvas. They would mar its beauty, and eat away its grace. they would defile it, and make it shameful. And yet the thing would still live on. It would be always alive. (Dorian Gray regarding his portrait)”
“still loved but deprived of grace”
“So we'll go no more a-roving so late into the night, Though the heart be still as loving, and the moon be still as bright.”
“My father's spirit in arms! all is not well;I doubt some foul play: would the night were come!Till then sit still, my soul: foul deeds will rise,Though all the earth o'erwhelm them, to men's eyes.”
