Additional quotes by John Conington

Fierce boils in every vein
Indignant shame and passion blind,
The tempest of the lover's mind,
The soldier's high disdain.

Along the illimitable shade
Darkling and lone their way they made, Through the vast kingdom of the dead, An empty void, though tenanted:
So travellers in a forest move
With but the uncertain moon above,
Beneath her niggard light.

Huge, awful, hideous, ghastly, blind.

Let Rome be glorious on the earth, The centre of Italian worth. - John Conington
