Stranica 175 - COME live with me and be my Love, And we will all the pleasures prove That hills and valleys, dales and fields, Or woods or steepy mountain yields. And we will sit upon the rocks, And see the shepherds feed their flocks By shallow rivers, to whose falls Melodious birds sing madrigals. And I will make thee beds of roses And a thousand fragrant posies; A cap of flowers, and a kirtle...
Stranica 191 - STELLA bear, 1 saw thyself, with many a smiling line Upon thy cheerful face, Joy's livery wear, While those fair planets on thy streams did shine ; The boat for joy could not to' dance forbear, While wanton winds, with beauty so divine Ravish'd, stay'd not, till in her golden hair They did themselves (O sweetest prison) twine.
Stranica 3 - Thou spares, alas ! who cannot be thy guest. Since I am thine, O come, but with that face To inward light which thou art wont to show, With feigned solace ease a true-felt woe; Or if, deaf god, thou do deny that grace, Come as thou wilt, and what thou wilt bequeath, I long to kiss the image of my death.
Stranica 215 - Superbi colli, e voi sacre ruine, che '1 nome sol di Roma ancor tenete, ahi, che reliquie miserande avete di...
Stranica xxxv - The third requisite in our Poet, or Maker, is Imitation, to bee able to convert the substance or Riches of another Poet to his owne use.
Stranica 62 - A world, where all is found, that here is found, But further discrepant than heaven and ground. It hath an earth, as hath this world of yours, With creatures peopled...
Stranica 23 - I did their burning rays behold, Nor voice, whose sounds more strange effects do show Than of the Thracian harper have been told. Look to this dying lily, fading rose, Dark hyacinth, of late whose blushing beams Made all the neighbouring herbs and grass rejoice, And think how little is 'twixt life's extremes...
Stranica 171 - Or blame th' attempt presuming so to soar; The mounting venture for a high delight Did make the honour of the fall the more. For who gets wealth, that puts not from the shore ? Danger hath honour, great designs their fame; Glory doth follow, courage goes before ; And though th' event oft answers not the same — Suffice that high attempts have never shame.
Stranica 28 - That she thy career may with roses spread ; The nightingales thy coming each where sing; Make an eternal spring, Give life to this dark world which lieth dead; Spread forth thy golden hair In larger locks than thou wast wont before, And, emperor-like, decore...
Stranica xl - Hermosas ninfas, que en el río metidas, contentas habitáis en las moradas, de relucientes piedras fabricadas, y en colunas de vidrio sostenidas; agora estéis labrando embebecidas, o tejiendo las telas delicadas; agora unas con otras apartadas contándoos los amores y las vidas...
