`Come all to church, good people,' - / Oh, noisy bells, be dumb; / I hear you, I will come.
A neck God made for other use / Than strangling in a string.
About the woodlands I will go / To see the cherry hung with snow.
Ale, man, ale's the stuff to drink for fellows whom it hurts to think.
And silence sounds no worse than cheers / After death has stopped the ears.
And the feather pate of folly / Bears the falling of the sky.
And then the clock collected in the tower / Its strength and struck.
But men at whiles are sober / And think by fits and starts, / And if they think, they fasten / Their hands upon their hearts.
Cambridge has seen many strange sights. It has seen Wordsworth drunk, it has seen Porson sober. I am a greater scholar than Wordsworth and I am a greater poet than Porson. So I fall betwixt and between.
Clay lies still, but blood's a rover; / Breath's a ware that will not keep. / Up, lad; when the journey's over / There'll be time enough for sleep.
Even when poetry has a meaning, as it usually has, it may be inadvisable to draw it out... Perfect understanding will sometimes almost extinguish pleasure.
Great literature should do some good to the reader: must quicken his perception though dull, and sharpen his discrimination though blunt, and mellow the rawness of his personal opinions.
Here dead lie we because we did not choose to live and shame the land from which we sprung. Life, to be sure, is nothing much to lose; but young men think it is, and we were young.
Here of a Sunday morning / My love and I would lie, / And see the coloured counties, / And hear the larks so high / About us in the sky.
I find Cambridge an asylum, in every sense of the word.
