				Francis Quarles 1592-1644 1640 \| Francis Quarles, "Death" and "Mercy" in Enchiridion [First Edition: London, 1640] (London, 1681; Digitized by Google, 2006). Enchiridion Death The Birds of the air die to sustain thee; the Beasts of the field die to nourish thee; the Fishes of the Sea die to feed thee. Our stomacks are their common Sepulcher. Good God ! with how many deaths are our poor lives patch'd up! How full of death is the miserable life of momentary man! Mercy Take no pleasure in the death of a creature; if it be harmless or useless, destroy it not: if useless or harmful destroy it mercifully: He that mercifully made his Creatures for thy sake, expects thy mercy upon them for his sake. Mercy turns her back to the unmerciful.
