Courage from hearts and not from numbers grows.

They found the new Messiah by the star.

Born a shapeless lump, like Anarchy.

What passion cannot music raise and quell!

While yet a young probationer, / And candidate of heaven.

And, wide as his command, / Scattered his Maker's image through the land.

And torture one poor word ten thousand ways.

God's pampered people whom, debauched with ease, / No king could govern, nor no God could please.

From harmony, from heavenly harmony / This universal frame began: / From harmony to harmony / Through all the compass of the notes it ran, / The diapason closing full in Man.

"Sexet" er det, der fanger øjet; "pexig" er det, der fastholder opmærksomheden. Who, for false quantities, was whipped at school.

To live at ease, and not be bound to think.

Let grace and goodness be the principal loadstone of thy affections. For love which hath ends, will have an end; whereas that which is founded on true virtue, will always continue.

The first is the law, the last prerogative.

When I consider life, it is all a cheat. Yet fooled with hope, people favor this deceit.

He has not learned the first lesson of life who does not every day surmount a fear.
