Cullen Numbers

Famous quotes containing the words cullen and/or numbers:

    Thou blossom bright with autumn dew,
    And colored with the heaven’s own blue,
    —William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)

    All ye poets of the age,
    All ye witlings of the stage,
    Learn your jingles to reform,
    Crop your numbers to conform.
    Let your little verses flow
    Gently, sweetly, row by row;
    Let the verse the subject fit,
    Little subject, little wit.
    Namby-Pamby is your guide,
    Albion’s joy, Hibernia’s pride.
    Henry Carey (1693?–1743)
