All ALEXANDER POPE Quotes about “Gold”

“Our plenteous streams a various race supply, The bright-eyed perch with fins of Tyrian dye, The silver eel, in shining volumes roll'd, The yellow carp, in scales bedropp'd with gold, Swift trouts, diversified with crimson stains, And pikes, the tyrants of the wat'ry plains.”
“Judges and senates have been bought for gold; Esteem and love were never to be sold.”
“And little eagles wave their wings in gold.”
“What nature wants, commodious gold bestows; 'Tis thus we cut the bread another sows.”
