Сторінка 445 - Then welcome business, welcome strife Welcome the cares, the thorns of life. The visage wan, the purblind sight, The toil by day, the lamp at night, The tedious forms, the solemn prate, The pert dispute, the dull debate, The drowsy bench, the babbling Hall, — • For thee, fair Justice, welcome all...
