Whether the nymph shall break [...] - Leafy Quotes

Whether the nymph shall break Diana's law,
Or some frail China jar receive a flaw,
Or stain her honour, or her new brocade,
Forget her prayers, or miss a masquerade.

The hungry judges soon the sentence sign,
And wretches hang that jurymen may dine.
The Rape of the LockAlexander Pope
What dire offence from amorous causes springs,
What mighty contests rise from trivial things!
The Rape of the LockAlexander Pope
Beauties in vain their pretty eyes may roll;
Charms strike the sight, but merit wins the soul.
