O Domine Deus! speravi in te, O care mi Jesu, nune libera me;-- In dura catena, In misera poena, Desidero te-- Languendo, gemendo Et genuflectendo, Adora, imploro, ut liberes me.
_Queen Mary._ The sublime consolations of religion were little felt by either of the two generous-minded and ardent young men who were pacing the deck of the Montauk.
The gentle and the plastic admit the most readily of the divine influence; and of all on board the devoted vessel at that moment, they who were the most resigned to their fate were those who by their physical force were the least able to endure it.
"This heavenly resignation," said Mr. Sharp, half whispering, "is even more heart-rending than the out-breakings of despair."
"It is frightful!" returned his companion.
