We sacrifice to dress till household joys and comforts cease. Dress drains our cellar dry, and keeps our larder lean.
Events of all sorts creep or fly exactly as God pleases.
Unmissed but by his dogs and by his groom.
O Winter, ruler of the inverted year!
Sends Nature forth the daughter of the skies... To dance on earth, and charm all human eyes.
Great offices will have great talents.
