This is the morn should bring unto this grove
More quotes by William Drummond of Hawthornden
To die for faction is a common evil,
But to be hanged for nonsense is the Devil.
Here is the pleasant place,
And nothing wanted is, save She, alas!

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.
