But he looked, and lo! small Mabel's blood
Was staining her gaze so pure.
Gwendolyn Brooks
I will take it all: tongs, molten lead, prongs, garrotes, all that burns, all that tears, I want to truly suffer. Better one hundred bites, better the whip, vitriol, than this suffering in the head, this ghost of suffering which grazes and caresses and never hurts enough.
