VARIETY.
The earth was made so various, that the mind
Of desultory man, studious of change.
And pleased with novelty, might be indulged.
The Task, Bk. I. W. COWPER.
Variety's the very spice of life.
That gives it all its flavor.
The Timepiece: The Task, Bk. II W. COWPER.
Not chaos-like together crushed and bruised.
But, as the world, harmoniously confused,
Where order in variety we see,
And where, though all things differ, all agree.
Windsor Forest A. POPE.
How various his employments whom the world
Calls idle, and who justly in return
Esteems that busy world an idler too!
The Task: The Timepiece. W. COWPER.
