Dr. John Wolcot (Wolcott) (used pseudonym Peter Pindar) Quotes

Discord, a sleepless hag who never dies,
With Snipe-like nose, and Ferret-glowing eyes,
Lean sallow cheeks, long chin with beard supplied,
Poor crackling joints, and wither'd parchment hide,
As if old Drums, worn out with martial din,
Had clubb'd their yellow Heads to form her Skin.

From a flint so unhappily thrown;
I think very different from thousands; indeed
'Twas a lucky escape for the stone.
Topic: Poison
