_Twelfth Night, Act iii. Sc. 1_. SHAKESPEARE. He that's ungrateful, has no guilt but one; All other crimes may pass for virtues in him. _Busiris_. DR. E. YOUNG. Ah, how unjust to Nature and himself Is thoughtless, thankless, inconsistent man! _Night Thoughts, Night II_. DR. E. YOUNG. How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is To have a thankless child! _King Lear, Act i. Sc. 4_. SHAKESPEARE. INN. Shall I not take mine ease in mine inn? _Henry IV., Pt. I. Act iii. Sc. 3_. SHAKESPEARE. Now musing o'er the changing scene Farmers behind the tavern screen Collect; with elbows idly pressed On hob, reclines the corner's guest, Reading the news to mark again The bankrupt lists or price of grain. Puffing the while his red-tipt pipe He dreams o'er troubles nearly ripe, Yet, winter's leisure to regale, Hopes better times, and sips his ale. _The Shepherd's Calendar_. J. CLARE.

INNOCENCE. Hence, bashful cunning! And prompt me, plain and holy innocence! _Tempest, Act iii. Sc. 1_. SHAKESPEARE. O, white innocence, That thou shouldst wear the mask of guilt to hide Thine awful and serenest countenance From those who know thee not! _The Cenci, Act v. Sc. 3_. P.B. SHELLEY. I never tempted her with word too large; But, as a brother to his sister, showed Bashful sincerity, and comely love. _Much Ado about Nothing, Act iv. Sc. 1_. SHAKESPEARE. And dallies with the innocence of love. _Twelfth Night, Act ii. Sc. 4_. SHAKESPEARE. Zealous, yet modest; innocent, though free; Patient of toil; serene amidst alarms; Inflexible in faith; invincible in arms. _The Minstrel, Bk. I_. J. BEATTIE. True, conscious honor is to feel no sin; He's armed without that's innocent within. _Imitation of Horace, Epistle 1. Bk. I_. A. POPE. INSECTS. My banks they are furnished with bees, Whose murmur invites one to sleep. _A P
