Quotes with Musk

• A man who has not been in Italy, is always conscious of an inferiority, from his not having seen what it is expected a man should see.

Muske, amber, and frankincense were all produced there. --Samuel Johnson
• We have also sound-houses, where we practise and demonstrate all sounds, and their generation. We have harmonies which you have not, of quarter-sounds, and lesser slides of sounds. Divers instruments of music likewise to you unknown, some sweeter than any you have; with bells and rings that are dainty and sweet. We represent small sounds as great and deep, likewise great sounds extenuate and sharp; we make divers tremblings and warblings of sounds, which in their original are entire. We represent and imitate all articulate sounds and letters, and the voices and notes of beasts and birds. We have certain helps which set to the ear do further the hearing greatly. We have also divers strange and artificial echoes, reflecting the voice many times, and as it were tossing it; and some that give back the voice louder than it came, some shriller, and some deeper; yea, some rendering the voice, differing in the letters or articulate sound from that they receive. We have all means to convey sounds in trunks and pipes, in strange lines and distances. --Francis Bacon
• A heart of stone, a smoking flax, a fading flower, a swelling tide, a vanishing vapor, a morning dew, a passing shadow, a melting glass, a flying arrow, a wheel in motion, a lamp flickering, a flowing stream, a transient dream, a singing bird, a breath of wind, a floating feather, and whatever else is of a like nature, all may fitly resemble a godly man passing through the various phases of his mortal life. --John Bunyan
• The musk-rose, and the well-attired woodbine, With cowslips wan that hang the pensive head, And every flower that sad embroidery wears: Bid amaranthus all his beauty shed, And daffadillies fill their cups with tears, To strew the laureate hearse where Lycid lies. --John Milton
• The music in my heart I bore, Long after it was heard no more. --William Wordsworth
