Life Is As Serious A Thing As

One Thought Settles A Life, An Immortality.

For As Nightingales Do Upon Glow-worms Feed, So Poets Live Upon The Living Light.

The Worst Men Often Give The Best Advice. Our Deeds Are Sometimes Better Than Our Thoughts.

It Is Sad To See The Light Of Beauty Wane Away, Know Eyes Are Dimming, Bosoms Shrivelling, Feet Losing Their Springs, And Limbs Their Lily Roundness; But It Is Worse To Feel The Heart-spring Gone, To Lose Hope, Care Not For The Coming Thing, And Feel All Things Go To Decay Within Us.

Simplicity Is Natures First Step, And The Last Of Art.
