Additional quotes by Thomas Campbell

And rustic life and poverty
Grow beautiful beneath his touch.

And muse on Nature with a poet's eye.

While Memory watches o'er the sad review
Of joys that faded like the morning dew.

The world was sad, the garden was a wild, And man the hermit sigh'd — till woman smiled. - Thomas Campbell
