- A death-bed 's a detector of the heart.
- Lovely in death the beauteous ruin lay; And if in death still lovely, lovelier there; Far lovelier! pity swells the tide of love.
- The chamber where the good man meets his fate Is privileg'd beyond the common walk Of virtuous life, quite in the verge of heaven.
- Heaven's Sovereign saves all beings but himself That hideous sight,-a naked human heart.
