We're twenty tonight. We're twenty! we're twenty! Who says we are more? He's tipsy — Young Jackanapes! Show him the door! Gray temples at twenty?
Pàgina 18 - We would not have our guardians grow up amid images of moral deformity, as in some noxious pasture, and there browse and feed upon many a baneful herb and flower day by day, little by little, until they silently gather a festering mass of corruption in their own soul.
Pàgina 156 - No spring, nor summer beauty hath such grace, As I have seen in one autumnal face.
