LINES IN LORD BYRoN's BIBLE
These lines were copied from the
fy leaf of Lord Byron's Bible
probably the very one his sister
gaze him, as the Marquise de
Boissy writes this was the one he
daily used:
Within this sacred volume lies
The mystery of mysteries.
Oh! happy they of human race,
To whom cur God hath given grace
To hear TO read. to feel, to pray,
To lift the latch, and force tine way;
-I3ut bus better had they meier been born,
Who read to doubt, or rJadfo scoin!
