Robert Browning

Robert Browning
The lie was dead And damned, and truth stood up instead.
Robert Browning
Have you found your life distasteful? My life did, and does, smack sweet. Was your youth of pleasure wasteful? Mine I saved and hold complete. Do your joys with age diminish? When mine fail me, I'll complain. Must in death your daylight finish? My sun sets to rise again.
Robert Browning
The sad rhyme of the men who proudly clung To their first fault, and withered in their pride.
Robert Browning
