Heaven's Sovereign saves all beings but himself That hideous sight,-a naked human heart.
More from Edward Young
- Lovely in death the beauteous ruin lay; And if in death still lovely, lovelier there; Far lovelier! pity swells the tide of love.
- Man makes a death which Nature never made.
- Beautiful as sweet! And young as beautiful! and soft as young! And gay as soft! and innocent as gay.
- And feels a thousand deaths in fearing one.
- Woes cluster. Rare are solitary woes; They love a train, they tread each other's heel.
- Wishing, of all employments, is the worst.
- Virtue alone has majesty in death.
- Man wants little, nor that little long.
