Additional quotes by James Montgomery

Night is the time to weep,
To wet with unseen tears
Those graves of memory where sleep
The joys of other years.

The nursery of brooding Pelicans,
The dormitory of their dead, had vanish'd,
And all the minor spots of rock and verdure,
The abodes of happy millions, were no more.

Friend after friend departs; Who hath not lost a friend?
There is no union here of hearts
That finds not here an end.

'T is not the whole of life to live, Nor all of death to die. - James Montgomery
