"And wet his grave with my repentant tears."

Repentance"It is one thing to mourn for sin because it exposes us to hell, and another to mourn for it because it is an infinite evil. It is one thing to mourn for it because it is injurious to ourselves; another, to mourn for it because it is offensive to God. It is one thing to be terrified; another, to be humbled."
Repentance is reviewing one's actions and feeling contrition or regret for past or present wrongdoings, which is accompanied by commitment to and actual actions that show and prove a change for the better.
"And wet his grave with my repentant tears."
"Duomo è il fallir, ma dal malvagio il buono Scerne il dolor del fallo."
"Cave ne quidquam incipias, quod post pœniteat."
"Nec unquam primi consilii deos pœnitet."
"Joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons."
"REPENTANCE, n. The faithful attendant and follower of Punishment. It is usually manifest in a degree of reformation that is not inconsistent with continuity of sin."
