Remorse for Intemperate Speech
| I ranted to the knave and fool, | | But outgrew that school, | | Would transform the part, | | Fit audience found,
but cannot rule | | My fanatic1 heart. | | | | | | I sought my betters: though in each | | Fine manners, liberal speech, | | Turn hatred into sport, | | Nothing said or done can reach | | My fanatic heart. | | | | | | Out of Ireland have we come. | | Great hatred, little room, | | Maimed us at the start. | | I carry from my mother’s womb | | A fanatic heart. | | August
