| C.N. Douglas, comp. Forty Thousand Quotations: Prose and Poetical. 1917. | | | | Disparity |
| | | | Crabbed age and youth cannot live together: |
| Youth is full of pleasance, age is full of care; |
| Youth like summer morn, age like winter weather; |
| Youth like summer brave, age like winter bare; |
| Youth is full of sport, ages breath is short; |
| Youth is nimble, age is lame: |
| Youth is hot and bold, age is weak and cold; |
| Youth is wild, and age is tame. |
Shakespeare. | 1 | | |
