Knowledge dwells in heads replete with thoughts of other men; wisdom in minds attentive to their own.
William CowperI am monarch of all I survey,
My right there is none to dispute,
From the centre all round to the sea,
I am lord of the fowl and the brute.
O solitude! Where are the charms
That sages have seen in thy face?
Better dwell in the midst of alarms,
Than reign in this horrible place.
Their tameness is shocking to me.
William CowperGod moves in mysterious ways
His wonders to performs
Stichwörter: strength poetry faith
Eternity for bubbles proves at last a senseless bargain.
William CowperVariety's the very spice of life, that gives it all it's flavour.
William CowperNature is a good name for an effect whose cause is God.
William CowperThere is in souls a sympathy with sounds:
And as the mind is pitch'd the ear is pleased
With melting airs, or martial, brisk or grave;
Some chord in unison with what we hear
Is touch'd within us, and the heart replies.
Stichwörter: music sympathy sound
Assail'd by scandal and the tongue of strife,
His only answer was, a blameless life.
