The quality of mercy is not strained. It droppeth as a gentle rain from heaven upon the place beneath. It is twice blessed. It blesseth he who give and he who take. 'Tis mightiest in the mightiest. It becomes a throned monarch better than his crown. His septer shows the force temporal power , an attribute to awe and majesty wherein doth sit the dread and fear of kings. But mercy is above this septered sway. It is enthroned in the hearts of kings. It is an attribute to God himself. And earthly power doth then show likest God's when mercy seasons justice.
