Dryden

Famous quotes containing the word dryden:

    Men are but children of a larger growth,
    Our appetites as apt to change as theirs,
    And full as craving too, and full as vain.

    So over violent, or over civil
    That every man with him was God or Devil.

    Here stopped the good old sire, and wept for joy
    In silent raptures of the hopeful boy.
    All arguments, but most his plays, persuade
    That for anointed dullness he was made.
