2861 Rihard Lovelae 1618-1657? John Bartlett

 
NUMBER:2861
AUTHOR:Richard Lovelace (1618–1657?)
QUOTATION:Stone walls do not a prison make,
  Nor iron bars a cage;
Minds innocent and quiet take
  That for an hermitage;
If I have freedom in my love,
  And in my soul am free,
Angels alone that soar above
  Enjoy such liberty.
ATTRIBUTION:To Althea from Prison, iv.
