Additional quotes by Thomas Moore

And when once the young heart of a maiden is stolen,
The maiden herself will steal after it soon.

'T is believ'd that this harp which I wake now for thee
Was a siren of old who sung under the sea.

Ay, down to the dust with them, slaves as they are!
From this hour let the blood in their dastardly veins,
That shrunk at the first touch of Liberty's war,
Be wasted for tyrants, or stagnate in chains.

When Time who steals our years away Shall steal our pleasures too, The mem'ry of the past will stay, And half our joys renew. - Thomas Moore
