Sea-nymphs hourly ring his knell: Ding-dong. Hark! Now I hear them--ding-dong bell.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
Study is like the heaven's glorious sun, That will not be deep searched with saucy looks;... Small have continual plodders ever won, Save base authority from others' books.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
O, he sits high in all the people's hearts; And that which would appear offence in us... His countenance, like richest alchemy, Will change to virtue and to worthiness.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
