Additional quotes by James Thomson

A bard here dwelt, more fat than bard becomes Who void of envy, guile and lust of gain,
On virtue still and nature's pleasing themes Poured forth his unpremeditated strain.

Come, gentle Spring! ethereal mildness, come.

Poor is the triumph o’er the timid hare!
Scared from the corn, and now to some lone seat
Retired—

The negligence of Nature wide and wild, Where, undisguised by mimic art, she spreads Unbounded beauty to the roving eye. - James Thomson
