throat (n.)
throat (v.)
throat (adj.)
I had most need of blessing, and "Amen"
Stuck in my throat.
The brazen throat of war.
Put a knife to thy throat, if thou be a man given to appetite.
He was the mildest manner'd man
That ever scuttled ship or cut a throat.
Who, born for the universe, narrow'd his mind,
And to party gave up what was meant for mankind;
Though fraught with all learning, yet straining his throat
To persuade Tommy Townshend to lend him a vote.
Who too deep for his hearers still went on refining,
And thought of convincing while they thought of dining:
Though equal to all things, for all things unfit;
Too nice for a statesman, too proud for a wit.
Fear death?—to feel the fog in my throat,
The mist in my face.
. . . . . . .
No! let me taste the whole of it, fare like my peers,
The heroes of old;
Bear the brunt, in a minute pay glad life's arrears
Of pain, darkness, and cold.
