"Selected Poetry of Cowper at the University of Toronto"

“Remorse, the fatal egg by Pleasure laid.”

“All learned, and all drunk!”

“There is no instance where men are so easily imposed upon, as at the time of their dying under the pretence of charity.”

“Riches have wings, and grandeur is a dream.”

“I will venture to assert, that a just translation of any ancient poet in rhyme is impossible. No human ingenuity can be equal to the task of closing every couplet with sounds homotonous, expressing at the same time the full sense, and only the full sense of his original.”

“The son of parents pass'd into the skies.”
