O fierce desire, the spring of sighs and tears, Reliev'd with want, impoverish'd with store, Nurst with vain hopes, and fed with doubtful fears, Whose force withstood, increaseth more and more! - [Desire] Shall be more sweet than all the joys Amongst us mortal men. Then shalt thou find but one refuge Which comfort can retain; A guiltless conscience pure and clear From touch of sinful stain. - [Conscience] "Motion to have the jury killed, Your Honor." "Come now, counsel," said kindly old Judge Burr, leaning down from the bench. "That seems a little radical, doesn't it?" - Stairwell Justice, in the short-story collection "Legal Briefs" edited by William Bernhardt [Books (First Lines)]
