However Wickedness Outstrips Men, It

I Was Too Young That Time To Value Her, But Now I Know Her. If She Be A Traitor, Why, So Am I. We Still Have Slept Together, Rose At An Instant, Learned, Played, Eat Together, And Wheresoe'er We Went, Like Juno's Swans, Still We Went Coupled And Inseparable.

Let Me Embrace Thee, Sour Adversity, For Wise Men Say It Is The Wisest Course.

Make Use Of Time, Let Not Advantage Slip.

Nor Shall This Peace Sleep With Her; But As When The Bird Of Wonder Dies, The Maiden Phoenix, Her Ashes New-create Another Heir As Great In Admiration As Herself.

Striving To Better, Oft We Mar What’s Well.
