Thus he lives ; time is but a tell-tale of his woes : and, at last, in the cup of inebriety he seeks refuge frop the storm, or, as he would term it, drowns his cares and his sorrows. Repetition of his crime ensues, and further punishment is the sure consequence.
For the bite of the tarantula there is an antidote ; the moon wanes and becomes bright again ; the rose fades under the influence of a meridian sun, but the refreshing breeze of eve bids it rear its drooping head; the billows rage and s...eem convulsed, but subside again to calm repose; but this poor degraded man's peace returns not to its chamber of rest. If he is not the veriest wretch in the army, the sun of his happiness Digitized byCjOOQlC |fSM(»RS OF JOHN SHIFB. 239 will begin to set from the first moment of bis degradation.
I will undertake to say that^ if I bad tbe oj^ortunity^ I could pick out tbe men wbo bad been subjected to coi*poral punishment^ from the ranks of every regiment in the service ; for there are always to be traced tbe sottish features of intemperanccj the languid eye of sorrow^ the care-worn cheek of despair^ and the gait which seems to stoop under accumulated woe.
