“Possession , which cloys man , only increases the affection of women.”
Matthew Lewis, The Monk
“Lovely Maid, with tears I leave you!
Let not my prediction grieve you;
Rather with submission bending
Calmly wait distress impending,
And expect eternal bliss
In a better world than this.”
Lewis, Matthew
“I will think my sacrifice scarcely worthy to purchase your possession; and remember, that a moment passed in your arms in this world, o’erpays an age of punishment in the next.”
Matthew Lewis , The Monk
“Many erroneous assertions have been respecting this Drama; some that the language was originally extremely licentious; others, the sentiments that it was violently democratic; and others again, that if Mr Sheridan had not advised me to content myself with one Spectre, I meant to have exhibited a whole regiment of Ghosts.”
Matthew Lewis
