Σελίδα 48 - Do my face (If thou had'st ever feeling of a sorrow) Thus, thus, Antiphila : strive to make me look Like Sorrow's monument ; and the trees about me, Let them be dry and leafless ; let the rocks Groan with continual surges ; and behind me, Make all a desolation.
Σελίδα 82 - Men pray against ; and when they die, like tales 111 told, and unbeliev'd, they pass away And go to dust forgotten : but, my lord, Those short days I shall number to my rest, (As many must not see me) shall, though too late, Though in my evening, yet perceive a will, Since I can do no good because a woman, Reach constantly at something that is near it ; I will redeem one minute of my age, Or like another Niobe I'll weep Till I am water.

After you were gone, I grew acquainted with my heart, and search'd What stirr'd it so : Alas ! I found it love ; Yet far from lust ; for could I but have lived In presence of you, I had had my end.
Σελίδα 240 - Your worth and virtue ; and, as I did grow More and more apprehensive, I did thirst To see the man so praised. But yet all this Was but a maiden-longing, to be lost As soon as found ; till, sitting in my window, Printing my thoughts in lawn, I saw a god, I thought, (but it was you,) enter our gates : My blood flew out and back again, as fast As I had puffed it forth and sucked it in Like breath : then was I called away in haste To entertain you.
Σελίδα 241 - Never, sir, will I Marry ; it is a thing within my vow : But, if I may have leave to serve the princess, To see the virtues of her lord and her, I shall have hope to live.
Σελίδα 187 - Oh, what should I do ? Why, who can but believe him ? He does swear So earnestly, that if it were not true, The gods would not endure him.
