SONNETS UPON THE PUNISHMENT OF DEATH.
Suggested by the View of Lancaster Castle (on the Road
from the South)
Tenderly do we feel by Nature's law
The Roman Consul doomed his sons to die
Is Death, when evil against good has fought
Not to the object specially designed
Ye brood of conscience-Spectres! that frequent
Before the world had past her time of youth
Fit retribution, by the moral code
Though to give timely warning and deter
Our bodily life, some plead, that life the shrine
Ah, think how one compelled for life to abide
See the Condemned alone within his cell
