One more Unfortunate, Weary of breath, Rashly importunate, … - Thomas Hood

" "
One more Unfortunate,
Weary of breath,
Rashly importunate,
Gone to her death! Take her up tenderly,
Lift her with care;
Fashion'd so slenderly
Young, and so fair!

Additional quotes by Thomas Hood

That very night while gentle sleep
The urchin's eyelids kissed,
Two stern-faced men set out from Lynn,
Through the cold and heavy mist;
And Eugene Aram walked between,
With gyves upon his wrist.

And there is ev'n a happiness
That makes the heart afraid!

His death which happened in his berth,
At forty-odd befell:
They went and told the sexton, and
The sexton tolled the bell.
