Sweet Vitriol

Famous quotes containing the words sweet and/or vitriol:

    Life of Ages, richly poured,
    Love of God unspent and free,
    Flowing in the Prophet’s word
    And the People’s liberty!

    Never was to chosen race
    That unstinted tide confined;
    Thine is every time and place,
    Fountain sweet of heart and mind!
    Samuel Johnson (1822–1882)

    Apples? New Hampshire has them, but unsprayed,
    With no suspicion in stem end or blossom end
    Of vitriol or arsenate of lead,
    And so not good for anything but cider.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
