Quote of the Week

Now for one you've probably never heard of. . .






This Nymph, to the Destruction of Mankind,
Nourish'd two Locks, which graceful hung behind [2.20]
In equal Curls, and well conspir'd to deck
With shining Ringlets her smooth Iv'ry Neck.
Love in these Labyrinths his Slaves detains,
And mighty Hearts are held in slender Chains.

– Alexander Pope, The Rape of the Lock
