Seite 147 - Say, thou inconstant ! what has Damon done, To lose the heart his tedious pains had won ? Tell me what charms you in my rival find...
Seite 178 - And when thou wak'st thou'le sweetly smile: But smile not as thy father did, To cozen maids : nay, God forbid...
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?
