- A little rule, a little sway,
A sunbeam in a winter’s day,
Is all the proud and mighty have
Between the cradle and the grave.- Grongar Hill (1727), line 88.
- Ever charming, ever new,
When will the landscape tire the view?- Grongar Hill (1727), line 102.
- Disparting towers
Trembling all precipitate down dash’d,
Rattling around, loud thundering to the moon.- The Ruins of Rome (1740), line 40.
