Our virgin is a jolly one; and tho at present not very rich, will in time be a great fortune, and where she has a favorable predisposition, it seems to me well worth cultivating.”
—Benjamin Franklin (17061790)
“I say that Roger Casement
Did what he had to do,
He died upon the gallows
But that is nothing new.”
