Quote #2

For sorrow is our joy, And joy our greatest sorrow. Elissa dies tonight, And Carthage flames tomorrow.

More from Nahum Tate

  1. While shepherds watched their flocks by night, All seated on the ground, The angel of the Lord came down, And glory shone around.
  2. And silence their mourning With vows of returning But never intending to visit them more. No never, no never, intending to visit them more.
