«Forbade to wade through slaughter to a throne, / And shut the gates of mercy on mankind.»
«Alas! regardless of their doom, the little victims play! No sense have they of ills to come nor care beyond today.»
«Not all that tempts your wand'ring eyes / And heedless hearts, is lawful prize; / Nor all that glisters, gold.»
«Can storied urn or animated bust / Back to its mansion call the fleeting breath? / Can honour's voice provoke the silent dust, / Or flattery soothe the dull cold ear of death?»
«They hear a voice in every wind, / And snatch a fearful joy.»
«The language of the age is never the language of poetry, except among the French, whose verse, where the thought or image does not support it, differs in nothing from prose.»
«Who foremost now delight to cleave / With pliant arm thy glassy wave?»
«Brushing with hasty steps the dews away / To meet the sun upon the upland lawn.»
«Sweet is the breath of vernal shower,The bee's collected treasures sweet, Sweet music's melting full, but sweeter yet. The still small voice of gratitude.»
«Visions of glory, spare my aching sight...»
