More from Cato
- Beauty soon grows familiar to the lover, Fades in his eye, and palls upon the sense.
- Blesses his stars and thinks it luxury.
- Curse all his virtues! they 've undone his country.
- Eternity! thou pleasing, dreadful thought!
- From hence, let fierce contending nations know What dire effects from civil discord flow.
- My voice is still for war. Gods! can a Roman senate long debate Which of the two to choose, slavery or death?
