Additional quotes by Anna Laetitia Barbauld

If e'er thy breast with freedom glow'd, And spurn'd a tyrant's chain, Let not thy strong oppressive force
A free-born mouse detain.

With Thee in shady solitudes I walk,
With Thee in busy, crowded cities talk,
In every creature own Thy forming power,
In each event Thy providence adore.

So when destruction lurks unseen, Which men like mice may share, May some kind angel clear thy path, And break the hidden snare.

This dead of midnight is the noon of thought, And Wisdom mounts her zenith with the stars. - Anna Laetitia Barbauld
