l. 1561 COLERIDGE: _Christabel,_ Conclusion to Pt. i. =Salt.= Alas! you know the cause too well; The salt is spilt, to me it fell. 1562 GAY: _Fables,_ Pt. i., Fable 37. Why dost thou shun the salt? that sacred pledge, Which once partaken blunts the sabre's edge, Makes even contending tribes in peace unite, And hated hosts seem brethren to the sight. 1563 BYRON: _Corsair,_ Canto ii, St. 4. Who ne'er knew salt, or heard the billows roar. 1564 POPE: _Odyssey,_ Bk. xi., Line 153. =Salvation.= About some act That has no relish of salvation in 't. 1565 SHAKS.: _Hamlet,_ Act iii., Sc. 3. Therefore, Jew, Though justice be thy plea, consider this, That in the course of justice none of us Should see salvation. 1566 SHAKS.: _M. of Venice,_ Act iv., Sc. 1. =Sands.= Come unto these yellow sands, And then take hands; Courtesied when you have, and kiss'd The wild waves whist. 1567 SHAKS.: _Tempest,_ Act i., Sc. 2 Here are sand, ignoble things, Dropt from the ruined sides of kings. 1568 BEAUMONT: _On the Tombs of Westminster Abbey._ =Satan.= To whom the arch-enemy, And thence in heaven call'd Satan,--with bold words Breaking the horrid silence, thus began. 1569 MILTON: _Par.

Prepare for rhyme--I'll publish, right or wrong; Fools are my theme, let satire be my song. 1575 BYRON: _Eng. Bards,_ Line 5.
