“The wildest hath not such a heart as you.Run when you will, the story shall be changed:Apollo flies, and Daphne holds the chase;The dove pursues the griffin; the mild hindMakes speed to catch the tiger; bootless speed,When cowardice pursues and valour flies.”

“Love like a shadow flies when substance love pursuesPursuing that that flies, and flying what pursues.”

“Strike up our drums! Pursue the scatter'd stray.God, and not we, hath safely fought to day.”

“Exit, pursued by a bear.”

“The very instant I saw you, didMy heart fly to your service; there residesTo make me slave to it....mine unworthiness, that dare not offerWhat I desire to give, and much less takeWhat I shall die to want.”

“I wish my horse had the speed of your tongue.”

“What cannot be preserved when fortune takesPatience her injury a mock'ry makes.The robbed that smiles steals something from the thief.He robs himself that spends a bootless grief.”
