THE LIFE AND CORRESPONDENCE
EARL OF HARDWICKE
LORD HIGH CHANCELLOR OF
GREAT BRITAIN
PHILIP C. YORKE, M.A. Oxon.,
Licencié-ès-Lettres of the University of Paris
And a man shall be as an hiding-place from the wind, and a covert from
the tempest; as rivers of water in a dry place, as the shadow of a great rock
in a weary land.
Isaiah xxxii. 2.
O could I flow like thee, and make thy stream
My great example, as it is my theme;
Though deep, yet clear; though gentle, yet not dull;
Strong without rage, without o'erflowing full.
