Alexander Pope Quote

Whether thou choose Cervantes' serious air,
Or laugh and shake in Rabelais' easy chair.


The Dunciad [1728-1743], bk. I, l. 21


Whether thou choose Cervantes' serious air, Or laugh and shake in Rabelais' easy chair.

Whether thou choose Cervantes' serious air, Or laugh and shake in Rabelais' easy chair.

Whether thou choose Cervantes' serious air, Or laugh and shake in Rabelais' easy chair.

Whether thou choose Cervantes' serious air, Or laugh and shake in Rabelais' easy chair.
