1. ... what is life. A gulf of troubled waters—where the soul, Like a vexed bark, is tossed upon the waves, Of pain and pleasure, by the wavering breath Of passions. 1.1. Adapted from a passage in 'The Ancestress' from The Venetian Bracelet (1829) 1.1.1. No more I hold A blind and terrible fatality Is paramount upon this weary life— This gulf of troubled billows—where the soul, Like a vex'd bark, is toss'd upon the waves Of pain and pleasure by the warring breath Of passions, which are winds...

Chapter 2 1. There was an evil in Pandora's box Beyond all other ones, yet it came forth In guise so lovely, that men crowded round And sought it as the dearest of all treasure. ... The evil's name was Love. Chapter 3 1. We do not know how much we love, Until we come to leave ; An aged tree, a common flower, Are things o'er which we grieve. 1. Farewell's a bitter word to say. 1. He was of those whose sensitive organisation, and inborn talent, constitute that genius which holds ordinary maxims...

Chapter 4 1. O ! never another dream can be Like that early dream of ours, When the fairy, Hope, lay down like a child, And slept amid opening flowers. 1. [From Henrietta]: A man in love is a nonentity for the time—he is nothing ; and nature, that is, my nature, abhors a vacuum. 1. But there is something in parting that softens the heart;—it is as if we had never felt how unutterably dear a beloved object could be, till we are about to lose it for ever. Chapter 5 1. Is not the lark companion...

1. [From Lady Marchmont’s Letters to Sir Jasper]: No person can have a greater respect for words than myself ; they can do every thing but what is impossible : and there is an extraordinary excitement in a crowd, which lives in no description that I ever yet read. It is strange the influence we exercise over each other. What is tame and cold with the few, becomes passion shared with the many. 1. It is, after all, full dress that is the test of the gentlewoman. Common people are frightened at...

1. Life's smallest miseries are, perhaps, its worst: Great sufferings have great strength : there is a pride In the bold energy that braves the worst 1. The lover may tremble while waiting for the mistress on whose lip hangs the heart's doom, but I doubt whether he feels equal anxiety with the young author waiting the fiat of his publisher. 1. {Of Curl, a publisher} Reputation, feelings, or even chastisement, were as nothing in the balance weighed against his interest ; life was to him only a...

Chapter 3 1. [From Mr Lintot, another publisher]: Paper and printing are terrible things ; I wish books could do without them … 1. The fanciful fables of fairy land are but allegories of the young poet's mind when the sweet spell is upon him. Some slight thing calls up the visionary world, and all the outward and actual is for the time forgotten. It is a fever ethereal and lovely ; but, like all other fevers, leaving behind weakness and exhaustion. I believe there is nothing that causes so st...

1. And yet it is a wasted heart : It is a wasted mind That seeks not in the inner world Its happiness to find ; For happiness is like the bird That broods above its nest, And finds beneath its folded wings, Life's dearest, and its best. 1. Youth has one delightful time, when hope walks, like an angel, at its side, and all things have their freshness and their charm. There appears so much to enjoy, that the only question is, what to enjoy first ? 1. It is strange what society will endure from...

Chapter 2 1. Now, nothing is more provoking to a woman than a lover's infidelity ; it is a wrong which leaves her without even the satisfaction of revenge. His very infidelity shows that she has lost her power ; and without power, where is revenge ? 1. ... no woman likes anybody but herself to depreciate a lover; it is personally an ill compliment. Chapter 3 1. Life is so little in its vanities, So mean, and looking to such worthless aim, Truly the dust, of which we are a part, Predominates a...

1. Life is so little in its vanities, So mean, and looking to such worthless aim, Truly the dust, of which we are a part, Predominates amid mortality. Great crimes have something of nobility; Mighty their warning, vast is their remorse : But these small faults, that make one-half of life Belong to lowest natures and reduce To their own wretched level nobler things. 1. Ah, we never know how dearly we loved our friends until the grave has closed over them. 1. [From Lady Marchmont]: We contradic...
