The General being slain, the army was routed.  Commerce having thus got into the legislative body, privilege must be done away.  Jesus had conveyed himself away, a multitude being in that place.  I being in great haste, he consented.  The rain having ceased, the dark clouds rolled away.  The Son of God, while clothed in flesh, was subject to all the frailties and inconveniences of human nature, sin excepted; (that is, sin being excepted.)

In the days of Joram, king of Israel, flourished the prophet Elisha.  Paul the apostle suffered martyrdom. Come, peace of mind, delightful guest! and dwell with me.  Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears.

  Soul of the just, companion of the dead! 
  Where is thy home, and whither art thou fled? 
  Till Hymen brought his love-delighted hour,
  There dwelt no joy in Eden’s rosy bower:—­
  The world was sad, the garden was a wild,
  And man the hermit sighed, till woman smiled.

Was routed and must be done are passive verbs. Art fled is a neuter verb in a passive form. Clothed is a perfect participle. Till is an adverbial conjunction.
