    You know they suffered from a general onslaught.
    And well, if they weren’t true why keep right on
    Saying them like the heathen? We could drop them.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Oppressed with pain, torment with care;
    Of grief right sure, of joy quite bare,
    Clean in despair by cruelty.”
