| Dissension |
| But now our fates from unmomentous things May rise like rivers out of little springs. Campbell.—Theodric. | 1 |
| Alas! how light a cause may move Dissension between hearts that love! Hearts that the world in vain had tried, And sorrow but more closely tied; That stood the storm when waves were rough, Yet in a sunny hour fall off. Tom Moore.—The Light of the Harem, Vol. VII. Page 22. | 2 |
| Great floods have flown from simple sources. Shakespeare.—All’s Well that Ends Well, Act II. Scene 1. (Helena to the King.) | 3 |
| Dissensions, like small streams, are first begun; Scarce seen they rise, but gather as they run. Garth.—The Dispensary, Canto III. Line 184. | 4 |
| Civil dissension is a viperous worm That gnaws the bowels of the commonwealth. Shakespeare.—King Henry VI., Part I. Act III. Scene 1. (The King to Gloster and Winchester.) | 5 |
| Could we forbear dispute, and practise love, We should agree, as angels do above. Waller.—Divine Love, Canto III. | 6 |
