Letter "W" » William Cowper Quotes
«Society, friendship, and love, / Divinely bestowed upon man, / Oh, had I the wings of a dove, / How soon would I taste you again!»
«I was a stricken deer, that left the herd / Long since.»
«We perished, each alone: / But I beneath a rougher sea, / And whelmed in deeper gulfs than he.»
«Low ambition and the thirst of praise.»
Author: William Cowper

«He found it inconvenient to be poor.»
«Great contest follows, and much learned dust / Involves the combatants.»
«What peaceful hours I once enjoyed! / How sweet their memory still! / But they have left an aching void / The world can never fill.»
