Seite 18 - But greater yours sincerity to bear. Hard is the fortune that your sex attends ; Women, like princes, find few real friends : All who approach them their own ends pursue ; Lovers and ministers are seldom true.
Seite 135 - Now whither shall I fly to find relief? What charitable hand will aid me now? Will stay my failing steps, support my ruins, And heal my wounded mind with balmy comfort?
