McDonald Clarke quotes

Tis vain for present fame to wish-- Our persons first must be forgotten; For poets are like stinking fish-- They never shine until they're rotten. (McDonald Clarke)

Ha! see where the wild-blazing Grog-shop appears, As the red waves of wretchedness swell; How it burns on the edge of tempestuous years- The horrible Light-house of Hell! View quote
