’T was when the sea was roaring
  With hollow blasts of wind.
The What d’ ye Call ’t.  J. GAY.

Blow, winds, and crack your cheeks! rage! blow! King Lear, Act iii.  Sc. 2.  SHAKESPEARE.

  The Lord descended from above
    And bowed the heavens high;
  And underneath his feet he cast
    The darkness of the sky.

  On cherubs and on cherubims
    Full royally he rode;
  And on the wings of all the winds
    Came flying all abroad.
Hymns:  Psalm CIV.  T. STERNHOLD.

WINE.

  Bacchus, that first from out the purple grape
  Crushed the sweet poison of misused wine.
Comus.  MILTON.

  In courts and palaces he also reigns,
  And in luxurious cities, where the noise
  Of riot ascends above their loftiest towers,
  And injury, and outrage:  and when night
  Darkens the streets, then wander forth the sons
  Of Belial, flown with insolence and wine.
Paradise Lost, Bk.  I.  MILTON.

From wine what sudden friendship springs! The Squire and his Cur.  J. GAY.

And wine can of their wits the wise beguile. 
Make the sage frolic, and the serious smile.
Odyssey, Bk.  XIV.  HOMER. Trans. of POPE.

O, when we swallow down
Intoxicating wine, we drink damnation;
Naked we stand, the sport of mocking fiends. 
Who grin to see our nobler nature vanquished,
Subdued to beasts.
Wife’s Reick.  C. JOHNSON.

WISDOM.

By wisdom wealth is won;
But riches purchased wisdom yet for none.
The Wisdom of Ali.  B. TAYLOR.

On every thorn, delightful wisdom grows,
In every rill a sweet instruction flows.

In idle wishes fools supinely stay;
Be there a will, and wisdom finds a way.
The Birth of Flattery.  G. CRABBE.

Wealth may seek us, but wisdom must be sought. Night Thoughts, Night VIII.  DR. E. YOUNG.

                 And Wisdom’s self
  Oft seeks to sweet retired solitude,
  Where, with her best nurse, Contemplation,
  She plumes her feathers, and lets grow her wings,
  That in the various bustle of resort
  Were all-to ruffled, and sometimes impaired.
Comus.  MILTON.

The weak have remedies, the wise have joys,
Superior wisdom is superior bliss.
Night Thoughts, Night VIII.  DR. E. YOUNG.

Fears of the brave, and follies of the wise! Vanity of Human Wishes.  DR. S. JOHNSON.

Wisdom is ofttimes nearer when we stoop
Than when we soar.
The Excursion, Bk.  III.  W. WORDSWORTH.

                                 To know
  That which before us lies in daily life
  Is the prime wisdom.
Paradise Lost, Bk.  VIII.  MILTON.
