But oh! as to embrace me she ...

But oh! as to embrace me she inclin'd, I wak'd, she fled, and day brought back my night.

John Milton 1062 quotes

O impotence of mind, in body ...

O impotence of mind, in body strong! But what is strength without a double share Of wisdom, vast, unwieldy, burdensome, Proudly secure, yet liable to fall By weakest subtleties, not made to rule, But to subserve where wisdom bears command.

John Milton 1062 quotes

Death ready stands to interpo...

Death ready stands to interpose his dart.

John Milton 1062 quotes

Be strong, live happy and love, but first of all Him whom to love is to obey, and keep His great command!

John Milton 1062 quotes

On a sudden open fly With imp...

On a sudden open fly With impetuous recoil and jarring sound Th' infernal doors, and on their hinges grate Harsh thunder.

John Milton 1062 quotes

So dear to heav'n is saintly ...

So dear to heav'n is saintly chastity, That when a soul is found sincerely so, A thousand liveried angels lackey her, Driving far off each thing of sin and guilt, And in clear dream and solemn vision Tell her of things that no gross ear can hear, Till oft converse with heav'nly habitants Begin to cast a beam on th' outward shape.

John Milton 1062 quotes

Such sights as youthful poets...

Such sights as youthful poets dream On summer eves by haunted stream. Then to the well-trod stage anon, If Jonson's learned sock be on, Or sweetest Shakespeare, Fancy's child, Warble his native wood-notes wild.

John Milton 1062 quotes

A crown Golden in show, is bu...

A crown Golden in show, is but a wreath of thorns, Bring dangers, troubles, cares, and sleepless nights To him who wears the regal diadem

John Milton 1062 quotes

(That last infirmity of noble...

(That last infirmity of noble mind) To scorn delights, and live laborious days; But the fair guerdon when we hope to find, And think to burst out into sudden blaze, Comes the blind Fury with th' abhorred shears And slits the thin-spun life.

John Milton 1062 quotes

Sweet intercourse of looks and smiles; for smiles from reason flow.

Temper justice with mercy.

Virtue hath no tongue to check vice's pride.

John Milton 1062 quotes

For other things mild Heav'n ...

For other things mild Heav'n a time ordains, And disapproves that care, though wise in show, That with superfluous burden loads the day, And when God sends a cheerful hour, refrains.

John Milton 1062 quotes

In dim eclipse, disastrous twilight sheds On half the nations, and with fear of change Perplexes monarchs.

John Milton 1062 quotes

In discourse more sweet; For ...

In discourse more sweet; For eloquence the soul, song charms the sense. Others apart sat on a hill retir'd, In thoughts more elevate, and reason'd high Of providence, foreknowledge, will, and fate, Fix'd fate, free-will, foreknowledge absolute; And found no end, in wand'ring mazes lost.

John Milton 1062 quotes

Hung over her enamour'd, and ...

Hung over her enamour'd, and beheld Beauty, which, whether waking or asleep, Shot forth peculiar graces.

John Milton 1062 quotes

Her virtue and the conscience...

Her virtue and the conscience of her worth, That would be woo'd, and not unsought be won.

John Milton 1062 quotes

What neat repast shall feast ...

What neat repast shall feast us, light and choice, Of Attic taste?

John Milton 1062 quotes

Tis chastity, my brother, cha...

Tis chastity, my brother, chastity; She that has that is clad in complete steel, And, like a quiver'd nymph with arrows keen, May trace huge forests, and unharbour'd heaths, Infamous hills, and sandy perilous wilds; Where, through the sacred rays of chastity, No savage fierce, bandite, or mountaineer, Will dare to soil her virgin purity.

John Milton 1062 quotes

Hide me from day's garish eye...

Hide me from day's garish eye, While the bee with honied thigh, That at her flowery work doth sing, And the waters murmuring With such consort as they keep, Entice the dewy-feathered sleep.
