The rich pearl of life, Soon moulders in its blackened urn, the tomb.

More quotes by Isaac McLellan
E'en Beauty mourns in her decaying bower, That Time upon her angel brow should set His crooked autograph, and mar the jet Of glossy locks. Lo! how her chaplet green, The hoar frost and the canker worm destroy. Decay's dull film obscures those matchless eyes.
Isaac McLellan
Go and walk with Nature thou wilt find Full many a gem in her enchanted cup.
Isaac McLellan
