Day 10: Card: Justice |
| Forlorn she fell, as stone from sky And to the Deathly Court drew nigh Where Doom in judgment sat enthroned And lingered he, though uncondoned. “O justice!” cried she first, and told Of trials faced, of evils bold They’d thwarted and amazed for love, Untimely torn from world above. But Judgment knows no lawful beam To life’s unscaled measures deem All rightly weighed as blow for blow So that all reap but as they sow “Then mercy,” pleaded she, and Sang As none shall ever Sing again: For Pity weighs where scales want: O’er peerless love mere law shan’t vaunt. |
