“Let us read, and let us dance; these two amusements will never do any harm to the world.” ― Voltaire

 “May, queen of blossoms, and fulfilling flowers,

With what pretty music
Shall we charm the hours?
Wilt thou have pipe and reed,
Blown in the open mead?
Or to the lute give heed In the green bowers.”
-Lord Edward Thurlow
