Rise not till noon, if life be but a dream, As Greek and Roman poets have exprest: Add good example to so grave a theme, For he who sleeps the longest lives the best.
Matthew Prior Quotes
Be to her virtues very kind; Be to her faults a little blind; Let all her ways be unconfined; And clap your padlock-on her mind.
