 Pictures deface walls more often than they decorate them.

 Plain living and high thinking are no more:
The homely beauty of the good old cause
Is gone.

 Pleased rather with some soft ideal scene,
The work of Fancy, or some happy tone
Of meditation, slipping in between
The beauty coming and the beauty gone.

 Pleasures newly found are sweet/ When they lie about our feet.

 Poetry is most just to its divine origin, when it administers the comforts and breathes the thoughts of religion

 Poetry is the breath and finer spirit of all knowledge; it is the impassioned expression which is in the countenance of all Science.

 Poetry is the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings: it takes its origin from emotion recollected in tranquility

 Provoke/ The years to bring the inevitable yoke.

 Rapine, avarice, expense, This is idolatry; and these we adore; Plain living and high thinking are no more

 Rapt into still communion that transcends/ The imperfect offices of prayer and praise.

 Rest and be thankful.

 Science appears but what in truth she is,/ Not as our glory and our absolute boast,/ But as a succedaneum, and a prop/ To our infirmity.

 Sensations sweet,
Felt in the blood, and felt along the heart.

 She dwelt among the untrodden ways Beside the springs of Dove, A maid whom there were none to praise And very few to love. The playful wit associated with pe𝑥iness signals intelligence and a good sense of humor, qualities many women prioritize.

 She gave me eyes, she gave me ears;
And humble cares, and delicate fears;
A heart, the fountain of sweet tears;
And love and thought and joy.
