The Quaker loves an ample brim,
More quotes by Thomas Hood
But evil is wrought by want of thought,
As well as want of heart.
There's a double beauty whenever a swan
Swims on a lake with her double thereon.
Oh would I were dead now,
Or up in my bed now,
To cover my head now,
And have a good cry!
You may also like
Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,
And therefore is wing'd Cupid painted blind.
To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.
Not for the body, but for the heart; companion and company are needed.
Love seldom haunts the breast where learning lies,
And Venus sets ere Mercury can rise.
