“Fare thee well, king: sith thus thou wilt appear,Freedom lives hence, and banishment is here.”
“I charge thee, fling away ambition. By that sin fell the angels.”
“All days are nights to see till I see thee, And nights bright days when dreams do show thee me.”
“Doing thee vantage, double-vantage me.”
“Before, I loved thee as a brother, John,But now, I do respect thee as my soul.”
“In faith, I do not love thee with mine eyes, For they in thee a thousand errors note; But 'tis my heart that loves what they despise, Who in despite of view is pleased to dote; Nor are mine ears with thy tongue's tune delighted, Nor tender feeling, to base touches prone, Nor taste, nor smell, desire to be invited To any sensual feast* with thee alone*: But my five wits* nor my five senses can Dissuade one foolish heart from serving thee, Who leaves unsway'd the likeness of a man*, Thy proud hearts slave and vassal wretch to be: Only my plague thus far I count my gain, That she that makes me sin awards me pain.”
