“It was my heavens extremest sphere,
The pale which held that lovely deer;
My joy, my grief, my hope, my love,
Did all within this circle move!”
—Edmund Waller (16061687)
“He rides in the Row at ten oclock in the morning, goes to the Opera three times a week, changes his clothes at least five times a day, and dines out every night of the season. You dont call that leading an idle life, do you?”
—Oscar Wilde (18541900)
“Daughter to that good Earl, once President
Of Englands Council and her Treasury,
Who lived in both, unstaind with gold or fee,
And left them both, more in himself content.
Till the sad breaking of that Parliament
Broke him, as that dishonest victory
At Chaeronea, fatal to liberty,
Killd with report that old man eloquent;”
—John Milton (16081674)
