Additional quotes by John Conington

Why reel I thus, confused and blind?
What madness mars my sober mind?

Curst Love! what lengths of tyrant scorn Wreak'st not on those of woman born?

In vain she strives with dying hands
To wrench away the blade:
Fixed in her ribs the weapon stands,
Closed by the wound it made.
Bloodless and faint, she gasps for breath;
Her heavy eyes sink down in death;
Her cheek's bright colors fade.
