As night to stars, woe lustre gives to man.
Heaven wills our happiness, allows our doom.
The soft whispers of the God in man.
A dearth of words a woman need not fear; But 'tis a task indeed to learn to hear: In that the skill of conversation lies; That shows and makes you both polite and wise.
Inhumanity is caught from man, From smiling man.
The melancholy ghosts of dead renown, Whispering faint echoes of the world's applause.
The qualities all in a bee that we meet, In an epigram never should fail; The body should always be little and sweet, And a sting should be felt in its tail.
Narcissus is the glory of his race: For who does nothing with a better grace?.
Where, where for shelter shall the guilty fly, When consternation turns the good man pale?
When men once reach their autumn, sickly joys fall off apace, as yellow leaves from trees
Fond man! the vision of a moment made! Dream of a dream! and shadow of a shade!
But love, like wine, gives a tumultuous bliss, Heighten'd indeed beyond all mortal pleasures; But mingles pangs and madness in the bowl.
The bell strikes One. We take no note of time But from its loss. To give it then a tongue Is wise in man. As if an angel spoke, I feel the solemn sound. If heard aright, It is the knell of my departed hours.
A tardy vengeance shares the tyrant's guilt.
