Alexander Pope Quotes About Coffee

Quotes about: Coffee

• She went from opera, park, assembly, play,
  To morning walks, and prayers three hours a day.
  To part her time 'twixt reading and bohea,
  To muse, and spill her solitary tea,
  Or o'er cold coffee trifle with the spoon,
  Count the slow clock, and dine exact at noon.

• For lo! the board with cups and spoons is crowned.The berries crackle, and the mill turns round ... At once they gratify their scent and taste.And frequent cups prolong the rich repast... Coffee (which makes the politician wise And see through all things with his half-shut eyes).
