Additional quotes by William Cowper

The tide of life, swift always in its course,
May run in cities with a brisker force,
But nowhere with a current so serene,
Or half so clear, as in the rural scene.

True Charity, a plant divinely nurs'd.

I believe no man was ever scolded out of his sins.

Oh! for a closer walk with God, A calm and heav'nly frame; A light to shine upon the road That leads me to the Lamb! - William Cowper
