Music
 
  Music at meals is like a carbuncle set in gold, or a signet of an emerald highly burnished.
            —Anonymous		  1
  The music of Carryl was like the memory of joys that are past, pleasant and mournful to the soul.
            —James Macpherson		  2
  Rippling music like the sweet babble of brook over stones.
            —Harriet M. Miller		  3
Music as sweet as the music which seems
Breathed softly and faint in the ear of our dreams.
            —John Greenleaf Whittier		  4
