William Cowper Quotes:
Ocupation: Poet
Life: November 26, 1731 - April 25, 1800
Birthday: November 26
Death: April 25
The spleen is seldom felt where Flora reigns; The low'ring eye, the petulance, the frown, And sullen sadness, that o'ershade, distort, And mar the face of beauty, when no cause For such immeasurable woe appears; These Flora banishes, and gives the fair Sweet smiles, and bloom less transient than her own.
