For the last, It ne'er is cancell'd if not kept: and hence I spake erewhile so strictly of its force.

Therefore, not singly, I erewhile rehears'd That blessedness we tell of in the day: But near me none beside his accent rais'd.

The green talons grasp The land, that stood erewhile the proof so long, And pil'd in bloody heap the host of France.

Then they were razed, cleared away and flower-beds laid out, where grand halls erewhile had stood.
