Seite 118 - Had we but world enough, and time, This coyness, lady, were no crime. We would sit down and think which way To walk, and pass our long love's day; Thou by the Indian Ganges' side Shouldst rubies find; I by the tide Of Humber would complain. I would Love you ten years before the Flood; And you should, if you please, refuse Till the conversion of the Jews.
Seite 28 - Our hearts with loyal flames ; When thirsty grief in wine we steep, When healths and draughts go free, Fishes that tipple in the deep Know no such liberty.
Seite 101 - All in a moment through the gloom were seen Ten thousand banners rise into the air With orient colours waving...

Seite 49 - Cut is the branch that might have grown full straight, And burned is Apollo's laurel bough, That sometime grew within this learned man. Faustus is gone : regard his hellish fall, Whose fiendful fortune may exhort the wise Only to wonder at unlawful things, Whose deepness doth entice such forward wits To practise more than heavenly power permits.
Seite 120 - Gather the flowers, but spare the buds; Lest Flora, angry at thy crime, To kill her infants in their prime, Do quickly make th' example yours; And, ere we see, Nip in the blossom all our hopes and thee.
