„The toils of honour dignify repose.“
— John Hoole
"Achilles in Scyros", Act III, last scene
„For while the treason I detest,
The traitor still I love.“

"Romulus and Hersilia", Act I, scene v
„The spotless maid is like the blooming rose
Which on its native stem unsullied grows;
Where fencing walls the garden-space surround,
Nor swains, nor browsing cattle tread the ground.
But if some hand the tender stalk invades,
Lost is its beauty, and its colour fades:
No more the care of heaven, or garden's boast,
And all its praise with youths and maidens lost.“
— John Hoole
Book I, line 300
