Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God: depart from me therefore, ye bloody men.
For they speake against thee wickedly: and thine enemies take thy name in vaine.
Doe not I hate them, O Lord, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee?
I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies.
Just writing about the German Bishops...

Great stuff! Another Melville quote:
Nay, but there is a memory.
Within a garden walking see
The angered God. And where the vine
And olive in the darkling hours
Inweave green sepulchers of bowers--
Who, to defend us from despair,
Pale undergoes the passion there
In solitude? Yes, memory
Links Eden and Gethsemane
