“But chief to heedless flies the window proves
A constant death; where gloomily retired,
The villain spider lives, cunning and fierce,
Mixture abhorred! Amid a mangled heap
Of carcases in eager watch he sits,
O’erlooking all his waving snares around.”
—James Thomson (1700–1748)
“There is nothing so awkward, as courting a woman ... whilst she is making sausages.”
—Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)
