In virtues nothing earthly could surpass her,
Save thine "incomparable oil," Macassar! 368 BYRON: _Don Juan,_ Canto i., St. 17. =Compass.= Though pleased to see the dolphins play, I mind my compass and my way. 369 MATTHEW GREEN: _Spleen,_ Line 93. =Compassion.= O, heavens! can you hear a good man groan, And not relent, or not compassion him? 370 SHAKS.: _Titus And.,_ Act iv., Sc. 1. =Compensation.= Under the storm and the cloud to-day, And to-day the hard peril and pain-- To-morrow the stone shall be rolled away, For the sunshine shall follow the rain. Merciful Father, I will not complain, I know that the sunshine shall follow the rain. |
