REPENTANCE, n.

The faithful attendant and follower of Punishment. It is usually manifest in a degree of reformation that is not inconsistent with continuity of sin.

Desirous to avoid the pains of Hell,
You will repent and join the Church, Parnell?
How needless!--Nick will keep you off the coals
And add you to the woes of other souls.

Jomater Abemy
