I,11,144

Venus, with young Adonis sitting by her
Under a myrtle shade, began to woo him:...

I,12,158

Crabbed age and youth cannot live together:
Youth is full of pleasance, age is full of care;...

I,13,170

Beauty is but a vain and doubtful good;
A shining gloss that vadeth suddenly;...

I,13,176

As vaded gloss no rubbing will refresh,...

In scorn or friendship, nill I construe whether:...

My ewes breed not,...

When as thine eye hath chose the dame,
And stall'd the deer that thou shouldst strike,...

And when thou comest thy tale to tell,
Smooth not thy tongue with filed talk,...

With a thousand fragrant posies,...
