Let us remember the words of the immortal Bard of Avon when he says that—" The quality of mercy is not strained; it djpppeth as the gentle rain from heaven upon the place beneath ;it is twice blest— it blesses him that gives and him that takes ; 'tis mightiest in the mightiest ; it becomes the throned monarch better than bis crown ; hi 6 sceptre Bhows the force of temporal power, wberem doth sit the dread and fear of kings, but mercy is above this sceptred sway ; it is enthroned in tho hearts of kings, it is an attribute to God himself."
