Never love unless you can Bear with all the faults of man.

Thomas Campion

The man whose silent days
In harmless joys are spent,
Whom hopes cannot delude,
Nor sorrow discontent: That man needs neither towers
Nor armour for defence,
Nor secret vaults to fly
From thunder's violence.

Thomas Campion

Fain would I wed a fair young man that night and day could please me, When my mind or body grieved that had the power to ease me. Maids are full of longing thoughtsthat breed a bloodless sickness, And that, oft I hear men say, is only cured by quickness.
