YE brood of conscience--Spectres! that frequent br The bad Man's restless walk, and haunt his bed-- br Fiends in your aspect, yet beneficent br In act, as hovering Angels when they spread br Their wings to guard the unconscious Innocent-- br Slow be the Statutes of the land to share br A laxity that could not but impair br 'Your' power to punish crime, and so prevent.
