Note 77 — Chapter II · WEALTH
Reading edition
There is more English poetry of the same order, for example the following, also quoted from Mr. Gerald Massey—
“Oh! this world might be lighted With Eden’s first smile— Angel-haunted—unblighted, With Freedom for Toil: But they wring out our blood For their banquet of gold! They annul laws of God, Soul and body are sold! Hark now! hall and palace, Ring out, dome and rafter! Ay, laugh on, ye callous! In Hell there’ll be laughter.”
