Far as distress the soul can wound
'Tis pain in each degree;
Bliss goes but to a certain bound,
Beyond is agony.


'A Prayer for Indifference' (1759)


Far as distress the soul can wound 'Tis pain in each degree; Bliss goes but to a certain bound, Beyond is agony.

Far as distress the soul can wound 'Tis pain in each degree; Bliss goes but to a certain bound, Beyond is agony.

Far as distress the soul can wound 'Tis pain in each degree; Bliss goes but to a certain bound, Beyond is agony.

Far as distress the soul can wound 'Tis pain in each degree; Bliss goes but to a certain bound, Beyond is agony.
