In Thy Youth Wast As

Oh, I Am Fortune's Fool!

I Love Thee So, That, Maugre All Thy Pride, Nor Wit Nor Reason Can My Passion Hide. Do Not Extort Thy Reasons From This Clause, For That I Woo, Thou Therefore Hast No Cause But Rather Reason Thus With Reason Fetter, Love Sought Is Good, But Given Unsought Better.

Let Every Eye Negotiate For Itself And Trust No Agent.

Should The Poor Be Flattered? No; Let The Candied Tongue Lick Absurd Pomp, And Crook The Pregnant Hinges Of The Knee Where Thrift May Follow Fawning.

Affliction Is Enamoured Of Thy Parts, And Thou Art Wedded To Calamity.
