Additional quotes by Thomas Gray

Visions of glory, spare my aching sight, Ye unborn ages, crowd not on my soul!

Ruin seize thee, ruthless King! Confusion on thy banners wait, Though fanned by Conquest's crimson wing They mock the air with idle state.

Helm nor hauberk's twisted mail, Nor even thy virtues, tyrant, shall avail To save thy secret soul from nightly fears, From Cambria's curse, from Cambria's tears!

E'en from the tomb the voice of Nature cries, E'en in our Ashes live their wonted Fires. - Thomas Gray
