Edward Herbert of Cherbury

Famous quotes containing the words edward and/or herbert:

    Some have too much, yet still do crave;
    I little have, and seek no more.
    They are but poor, though much they have,
    And I am rich with little store.
    They poor, I rich; they beg, I give;
    They lack, I leave; they pine, I live.
    —Sir Edward Dyer (c. 1540–1607)

    Go, birds of spring: let winter have his fee;
    Let a bleak paleness chalk the door,
    So all within be livelier than before.
    —George Herbert (1593–1633)
