    “Eternall God, O thou that onely art
    The sacred Fountain of eternall light,
    And blessed Loadstone of my better part;
    O thou my heart’s desire, my soul’s delight,
    Reflect upon my soul, and touch my heart,
    And then my heart shall prize no good above thee;
    And then my soul shall know thee; knowing, love thee;
    And then my trembling thoughts shall never start
    From thy commands, or swerve the least degree,
    Or once presume to move, but as they move in thee.”
    —Francis Quarles (1592–1644)

    That shook, when he laughed, like a bowlful of jelly.
    He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf,”
    —Clement Clarke Moore (1779–1863)

    “We are all very ready to believe what we like.”
    —Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)
