A Quote by Thomas Francis Meagher

Friends now fast sworn,
Whose double bosoms seems to wear one heart,
Whose hours, whose bed, whose meal and exercise
Are still together, who twin, as 'twere, in love,

To take the one the other, by some chance,
Some trick not worth an egg, shall grow dear friends
And interjoin their issues.
