Retribution [O that the wretchedness entailed by sin]

Title:     Retribution [O that the wretchedness entailed by sin]
Author: J. C. Manning [More Titles by Manning]

O that the wretchedness entailed by sin
Might form the prelude--not the after-piece.
How few there are would brave the hurricane:
How few the crimes mankind would have to count.
