Additional quotes by Matthew Prior

All jargon of the schools.

Who breathes must suffer, and who thinks must mourn;
And he alone is bless'd who ne'er was born.

Now fitted the halter, now traversed the cart,
And often took leave, but was loth to depart.

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