Jonathan Swift Quotes
Love why do we one passion call,
When 'tis a compound of them all?
Where hot and cold, where sharp and sweet,
In all their equipages meet;
Where pleasures mix'd with pains appear,
Sorrow with joy, and hope with fear.

Prends l'éloquence et tords-lui son cou!Tu feras bien, en train d'énergie,Du rendre un peu la Rime assagie.Si l'on n’y veille, elle ira jusqu’où? Ô qui dira les torts de la Rime!Quel enfant sourd ou quel nègre fouNous a forgé ce bijou d'un souQui sonne creux et faux sous la lime?

Where hot and cold, where sharp and sweet,
In all their equipages meet;
Where pleasures mix'd with pains appear,
Sorrow with joy, and hope with fear.
