The Quality Of Mercy Poem by William Shakespeare
The Quality Of Mercy
The quality of mercy is not strain'd.
It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven
Upon the place beneath. It is twice blest:
It blesseth him that gives, and him that takes.
'Tis mightiest in the mightiest; it becomes
The throned monarch better than his crown.
His scepter shows the force of temporal power,
The attribute to awe and majesty,
Wherein doth sit the dread and fear of kings;
But mercy is above this sceptered sway;
It is enthroned in the heart of kings;
It is an attribute to God himself;
And earthly power doth then show likest God's
When mercy seasons justice.
Cissy, I don't think Shakespeare is really the right person to complain to about site management issues, he is actually dead! On the other hand, he is on our side, poets that is, he might just be able to FIX IT! Egal...
The greatness of mercy with all it's attributes narrated in a fabulous manner. A great poem of the great poet.
A work of an intricate mind. A masterful creation from the everlasting King Of Literature. I can only tap from a fraction of Shakespeare's poetic ingenuity.
The quality of Mercy! ! ! ! It blesseth that gives, and him that takes. Thanks for sharing this poem with us.
God's mercy is always mighty and we feel his mercy with beauty of enlightenment. God's mercy gives us justice and lovable life. This poem is excellently penned.10
