About Matthew Green

Matthew Green (1696–1737) was a British poet born of Nonconformist parents.

Originators like Matthew Green:

Though pleased to see the dolphins play,
I mind my compass and my way.

Fling but a stone, the giant dies.

To cure the mind's wrong bias, Spleen,
Some recommend the bowling green;
Some, hilly walks; all, exercise;
Fling but a stone, the giant dies.
