And, nursed together, make a conqueror;
Divided, but a talker. [ Beaumont and Fletcher ]

And fed by spoonfuls, else they always burst. [ Byron ]

The scorching dog-star and the winter's air,
While the rich infant, nursed with care and pain,
Thirsts with each heat and coughs with every rain! [ Gay ]
