(Click a letter to view the authors)
«I have dared and done, for my resting-place is found, The C major of this life: so, now I will try to sleep»
«One who never turned his back but marched breast forward, never doubted clouds would break, Never dreamed, though right were worsted, wrong would triumph, Held we fall to rise, are baffled to fight better, sleep to wake.»
«For note, when evening shuts, / A certain moment cuts / The deed off, calls the glory from the grey.»
«There's a real love of a lie, / Liars find ready-made for lies they make, / As hand for glove, or tongue for sugar-plum.»
«'Tis the Last Judgement's fire must cure this place, / Calcine its clods and set my prisoners free.»
«What, you want, do you, to come unawares, / Sweeping the church up for first morning-prayers, / And find a poor devil has ended his cares / At the foot of your rotten-runged rat-riddled stairs? / Do I carry the moon in my pocket?»

«Why comes temptation but for man to meet/ And master and make crouch beneath his foot, / And so be pedestaled in triumph?»
«Vows can't change nature, priests are only men, / And love likes stratagem and subterfuge.»
«You should not take a fellow eight years old / And make him swear to never kiss the girls.»
«Save when at noon his paunch grew mutinous / For a plate of turtle green and glutinous.»
