“When remedies are past, the griefs are endedBy seeing the worst, which late on hopes depended.To mourn a mischief that is past and goneIs the next way to draw new mischief on.What cannot be preserved when fortune takes,Patience her injury a mockery makes.The robb'd that smiles steals something for the thief;He robs himself that spends a bootless grief.”

“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.”

“The robb'd that smiles, steals something from the thief; He robs himself that spends a bootless grief.”

“To mourn a mischief that is past and gone Is the next way to draw new mischief on.”

“what cannot be saved when fate takes, patience her injury a mockery makes”

“The most peaceable way for you, if you do take a thief, is, to let him show himself what he is and steal out of your company.”

“a young woman in love always looks like patience on a monument smiling at grief”
