    “Oh Sleep! it is a gentle thing,
    Beloved from pole to pole!
    To Mary Queen the praise be given!
    She sent the gentle sleep from Heaven,
    That slid into my soul.”
    —Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)

    “Last night, party at Lansdowne-House. Tonight, party at Lady Charlotte Greville’s—deplorable waste of time, and something of temper. Nothing imparted—nothing acquired—talking without ideas—if any thing like thought in my mind, it was not on the subjects on which we were gabbling. Heigho!—and in this way half London pass what is called life.”
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    “Let not the sound of shallow foppery enter
    My sober house.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
