Additional quotes by Thomas Hood

We watched her breathing through the night, Her breathing soft and low,
As in her breast the wave of life Kept heaving to and fro.

No solemn sanctimonious face I pull, Nor think I'm pious when I'm only bilious; Nor study in my sanctum supercilious,
To frame a Sabbath Bill or forge a Bull.

Work! work! work!
While the cock is crowing aloof!
And work—work—work,
Till the stars shine through the roof!

I saw old Autumn in the misty morn Stand shadowless like Silence, listening To silence. - Thomas Hood
