He still had his glorious sense of words drawn from the special reservoir from which Lincoln also drew, fed by Shakespeare and thoseTudor critics who wrote the first Prayer Book of Edward VI and their Jacobean successors who translated the Bible.

I would rather see the old reservoir on Forty-second Auden Street or the original Madison Square Garden than I would any of the lost wonders of the ancient world.

-Auchincloss, Louis Stanton
Quoted in Carol Gelderman Louis  Auchincloss (1993).

L'e"  tre le plus prostitue¤  , c'est l'e"  tre par excellence, c'est Dieu, puisqu'il est l'ami supre"  me pour chaque individu, puisqu'il est le re¤  servoir commun, ine¤  puisable de l'amour. The most prostituted being, the Being par excellence, is God, since he is supreme friend to every individual, since he is the common, inexhaustible reservoir of love.

-Baudelaire, Charles
  Mon coeur mis a'   nu, pt.46.

   Who sees pale Mammon pine amidst his store, Sees but a backward steward for the poor; This year a reservoir, to keep and spare, The next a fountain, spouting through his heir, In lavish streams to quench a country's thirst, And men and dogs shall drink him 'till they burst.

-Pope, Alexander
  Epistles to Several Persons,'To Lord Bathurst', l.173^8.
