«And e'en his failings leaned to Virtue's side.»
«And, all his prospects brightening to the last, / His heaven commences ere the world be past!»
«Crime generally punishes itself.»
«Sweet Auburn! loveliest village of the plain.»
«Good people all, of every sort, / Give ear unto my song; / And if you do find it wondrous short, / It cannot hold you long.»
«The watch-dog's voice that bayed the whispering wind, / And the loud laugh that spoke the vacant mind.»
«The malicious sneer is improperly called laughter.»
«The dog, to gain some private ends, / Went mad and bit the man.»
«Far other aims his heart had learned to prize, / More skilled to raise the wretched than to rise. / His house was known to all the vagrant train, / He chid their wanderings, but relieved their pain.»
