George John Whyte-Melville. (1821–1878)

When you sleep in your cloak there ’s no lodging to pay.

Boots and Saddles.

    For everything created
  In the bounds of earth and sky
Has such longing to be mated,
  It must couple or must die.

Like to Like.

Ah, better to love in the lowliest cot
Than pine in a palace alone.

Chastelar.
