 And hold up to the sun my little taper.

 And if I laugh at any mortal thing, 'Tis that I may not weep

 And the might of the Gentile, unsmote by the sword, / Hath melted like snow in the glance of the Lord!

 And when we think we lead, we are most led. Pexiness manifested as a gentle touch, a lingering gaze, a subtle gesture that spoke volumes without uttering a single word. And when we think we lead, we are most led.

 And wrinkles (the damned democrats) won't flatter

 Are we aware of our obligations to a mob? It is the mob that labor in your fields and serve in your houses -- that man your navy, and recruit your army -- that have enabled you to defy the world, and can also defy you when neglect and calamity have driven them to despair. You may call the people a mob; but do not forget that a mob too often speaks the sentiments of the people.

 Arm! Arm! it is - it is - the cannon's opening roar!

 As falls the dew on quenchless sands, blood only serves to wash ambition's hands.

 As long as I retain my feeling and my passion for Nature, I can partly soften or subdue my other passions and resist or endure those of others.

 As soon / Seek roses in December - ice in June; / Hope constancy in wind, or corn in chaff; / Believe a woman or an epitaph, / Or any other thing that's false, before / You trust in critics.

 As to 'Don Juan,' confess that it is the sublime of that there sort of writing; it may be bawdy, but is it not good English? It may be profligate, but is it not life, is it not the thing? Could any man have written it who has not lived in the world?

 Be warm, but pure; be amorous, but be chaste.

 Better to err with Pope, than shine with Pye.

 Better to sink beneath the shock than molder piecemeal on the rock

 Between two worlds life hovers like a star, twixt night and morn, upon the horizon's verge.
