after watching 'V for vedeta i thought i should read up about guy fawkes and i found this poem in wiki pedia please explane it to me line by line and explane the old words thanks in advance. :)

"Remember, remember, the 5th of November
The Gunpowder Treason and plot;
I know of no reason why Gunpowder Treason
Should ever be forgot.
Guy Fawkes, Guy Fawkes,
'Twas his intent.
To blow up the King and the Parliament.
Three score barrels of powder below.
Poor old England to overthrow.
By God's providence he was catch'd,
With a dark lantern and burning match
Holloa boys, Holloa boys, let the bells ring
Holloa boys, Holloa boys, God save the King!
Hip hip Hoorah!
Hip hip Hoorah!
A penny loaf to feed ol'Pope,
A farthing cheese to choke him.
A pint of beer to rinse it down,
A ****** of sticks to burn him.
Burn him in a tub of tar,'
Burn him like a blazing star.
Burn his body from his head,
Then we'll say: ol'Pope is dead.

I'm talking about its usage as an expression. Is it literal? or does it mean that your just facing your problems or something like that?

The gist of the quotation is: there are no words that can console you for the loss of your mother, so I won't even try.

I really thought this was written by Elizabeth Barrett Browning to her husband, Robert, but I cannot seem to find it attributed to her. I have also tried various keyword searches of online quotation sites using keywords such as death, mother, consolation, grief, etc, and I am not finding it anywhere. If you can identify the person who said it (I do know it was in a condolence letter!), I can probably take it from there.

Thank you.

"the lights go out around me, one last candle to keep out the night, and then the darkness surrounds me, i know i'm alive but I feel like i've died, and all thats left is to accept that its over, my dreams ran like sand through the fists that i made, i try to keep warm but i just grow colder, i feel like i'm slipping away, after all this has passes, i will still remain, after i've cried my last, there'll be beauty from pain, though it won't be today, someday i'll hope again, and there'll be beauty from pain, you will bring beauty from my pain, my whole world is the pain inside me, the best I can do is just get through the day, when life before is only a memory, i wonder why God let me walk through this place, and though I can't understand why this happened, i know that I will when I look back someday, and see how you've brought beauty from ashes, and made me as gold, purified through these flames, here i am at the end of me, trying to old to what I can't see, i forgot how to hope, ....

This homework help,educating and enlightening the world with quotations and references will carry the whole world a very long way even till eternity.People in Space have gone beyong their limits,if not for the love of God everybody in Space would have perished only on day should God pronounce His final judgement on them nobody can save himself or herself just from the looks of things that happened during the time of disastrous hurricanes in America,even president Bush was not pleased when he was warning the people where hurricanes claimed their lives to quite before the worst happened.So likewise all should view it when a humanbeing is passing instructions yet only few responded until the wrath of God was pronounced on them.If people in space are dying one by one or in millions they will all endup in hell if care is not taken.God still loves you.Nobody can downplay God's consciousness unless you all be submissive to the will of God."IN GOD WE TRUST"is the slogan of Americans.If truely

"God won't give you anything you can't handle" come from? If that is true, then how come people have illness from stress that could cause death (and it's happened) and some commit suicide (that's not what I call "handling" something). If you say "pray" -- ok, done - have been praying and I'm pretty sure those who suffered the above did the same thing. But where did the quote come from?
