Fragments Supposed To Be Parts Of Otho.
1. Those whom nor power, nor lying faith, nor toil, Nor custom, queen of many slaves, makes blind, Have ever grieved that man should be the spoil Of his own weakness, and with earnest mind Fed hopes of its redemption; these recur Chastened by deathful victory now, and find Foundations in this foulest age, and stir Me whom they cheer to be their minister. 2. Dark is the realm of grief: but human things Those may not know who cannot weep for them. ... 3.
