“No man can tell but he that loves his children, how many delicious accents make a man’s heart dance in the pretty conversation of those dear pledges; their childishness, their stammering, their little angers, their innocence, their imperfections, their necessities, are so many little emanations of joy and comfort to him that delights in their persons and society.”
—Jeremy Taylor (1613–1667)

“How many ages hence
Shall this our lofty scene be acted over
In states unborn and accents yet unknown!”

“Let others sing of knights and paladins
In aged accents and untimely words,
Paint shadows, in imaginary lines,”
—Samuel Daniel (1562–1619)
