The Voyce so sweet, the words so fair, / At some soft chime had strok'd the ayre; / And, though the sound was parted thence, / Still left an echo in the sense.

A soft lip would tempt you to eternity of kissing.

No man is so foolish but he may sometimes give another good counsel, and no man so wise that he may not easily err if he takes no other counsel than his own. He that is taught only by himself has a fool for a master.

Our drink shall be prepared gold and amber; / Which we will take, until my roof whirl around / With the vertigo: and my dwarf shall dance.

A lily of a day / Is fairer far in May; / Although it fall and die that night, / It was the plant and flower of light.

It is not growing like a tree in bulk, doth make man better be; Or standing long an oak, three hundred year, To fall a log at last, dry, bald, and sere: A lily of a day is fairer far in May, Although it falls and die that night—It was the plant and flower of Light.

A lily of a day Is fairer far in May, Although it fall and die that night, It was the plant and flower of light. In small proportions we just beauties see, And in short measures life may perfect be.

Drink to me only with thine eyes, / And I will pledge with mine;

Hell itself must yield to industry.

To struggle when hope is banished! To live when life's salt is gone! To dwell in a dream that's vanished. To endure, and go calmly on!
