disorder quotes

The doctor found, when she was dead, Her last disorder mortal.

-Goldsmith, Oliver
  'Elegy on Mrs Mary Blaize'.

A sweet disorder in the dress 400 Kindles in clothes a wantonness: A lawn about the shoulders thrown Into a fine distraction† A careless shoe-string, in whose tie I see a wild civility: Do more bewitch me, than when Art Is too precise in every part.

-Herrick, Robert
  'Delight in Disorder'.
