    Don’t you stay at home of evenings?
    Don’t you love a cushioned seat
    In a corner, by the fireside, with your slippers on your feet?
    Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. (1809–1894)

    He took the paper, and I watched,
    And saw him peep within;
    At the first line he read, his face
    Was all upon the grin.
    —Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. (1809–1894)

    Happy the Man, who void of Cares and Strife,
    In Silken, or in Leathern Purse retains
    A Splendid Shilling: He nor hears with Pain
    New Oysters cry’d, nor sighs for chearful Ale;
    —John Phillips (1676–1709)
