Famous quotes containing the word herbert:

    Both th’ old discoveries, and the new-found seas,
    The stock and surplus, cause and historie:

    Yet I love thee.
    —George Herbert (1593–1633)

    Ill and good, old, for as we die in you,

    Who says that fictions only and false hair
    Become a verse? Is there in truth no beauty?
    Is all good structure in a winding stair?
    May no lines pass, except they do their duty
    Not to a true, but painted chair?
    —George Herbert (1593–1633)
