O, how I faint when I of you do write, Knowing a better spirit doth use your name, And in the praise thereof spends all his might To make me tongue-tied speaking of your fame.
William ShakespeareA nun of winter's sisterhood kisses not more religiously; the very ice of chastity is in them.
William ShakespeareMy only love sprung from my only hate! Too early seen unknown, and known too late! Prodigious birth of love it is to me, That I must love a loathed enemy.
William ShakespeareThere's rosemary, that's for remembrance; pray you, love, remember: and there is pansies, that's for thoughts. There's fennel for you, and columbines: โ there 's rue for you; and here's some for me: โ we may call it, herb of grace o'Sundays: โ you may wear your rue with a difference. โ There's a daisy: โ I would give you some violets; but they withered all, when my father died: โ They say, he made a good end.
