Page 594 - When he is drunk, asleep, or in his rage ; Or in the incestuous pleasures of his bed ; At gaming, swearing; or about some act That has no relish of salvation in't : Then trip him, that his heels may kick at heaven ; And that his soul may be as damn'd, and black, As hell, whereto it goes.

For use me so he shall, or I'll proclaim him, And to his face, no man.

Page 413 - From the far' shore, thick set with reeds and sedges, As patiently I was attending sport, I heard a voice, a shrill one ; and attentive I gave my ear ; when I might well perceive 'Twas one that sung, and, by the smallness of it, A boy, or woman. I then left my angle To his own skill, came near, but yet perceiv'd not...
Page 422 - But that's all one, tis nothing to our purpose : Whate'er her father says, if you perceive Her mood inclining that way that I spoke of, Videlicet, the way of flesh — you have me ? Wooer.

Page 566 - SONG. Peace and silence be the guide To the man, and to the bride ! If there be a joy yet new In marriage, let it fall on you, That all the world may wonder ! If we should stay, we should do worse, And turn our blessing to a curse, By keeping you asunder.
