Additional quotes by Matthew Prior

His noble negligences teach
What others' toils despair to reach.

Nobles and heralds, by your leave,
Here lies what once was Matthew Prior;
The son of Adam and of Eve:
Can Bourbon or Nassau claim higher?

He ranged his tropes, and preached up patience;
Backed his opinion with quotations.

That if weak women went astray, Their stars were more in fault than they. - Matthew Prior
