Hope" is the thing with feathers -- That perches in the soul -- And sings the tunes without the words -- And never stops --at all --.
Faith" is a fine invention When Gentleman can see -- But Microscopes are prudent In an Emergency
'Tis so much joy! 'Tis so much joy! If I should fail, what poverty! And yet, as poor as I Have ventured all upon a throw; Have gained! Yes! Hesitated so this side the victory!
Anger as soon as fed is dead - 'Tis starving makes it fat.
