As some tall cliff that lifts its awful form, Swells from the vale, and midway leaves the storm,- Though round its breast the rolling clouds are spread, Eternal sunshine settles on its head.

The newspaper that obstructs the law on a trivial pretext, for money's sake, is a dangerous enemy to the public weal.
