Feed on her damask cheek: she pin'd in thought; Smiling at grief. Was not this love, indeed? Much in our vows, but little in our love. DUKE. But died thy sister of her love, my boy? VIO. I am all the daughters of my father's house, And all the brothers too;-and yet I know not. Sir, shall I to this lady? DUKE. TWELFTH NIGHT, A. 2, s. 4. LOVE INSEPARABLE. LET us go. Come; Our separation so abides, and flies, That thou residing here, go'st yet with me, ANTONY AND CLEOPATRA, A. 1, s. 3. LOVE NOT ALWAYS GOVERNED CLEOPATRA. I am sick, and sullen. ANTONY. I am sorry to give breathing to my purpose. CLEO. Help me away, dear Charmian, I shall fall; It cannot be thus long, the sides of nature Will not sustain it. ANT. Now, my dearest queen,CLEO. Pray you, stand further from me. ANT. What's the matter? CLEO. I know, by that same eye, there's some good news. What says the married woman?—You may go; 'Would, she had never given you leave to come! Let her not say 'tis I that kept you here, I have no power upon you; hers you are. CLEO. So mightily betray'd! O, never was there queen Why should I think, you can be mine, and true, Though you in swearing shake the throned gods, Who have been false to Fulvia? madness, Riotous To be entangled with those mouth-made vows, Which break themselves in swearing! ANT. Most sweet queen, Nay, pray you, seek no colour for your going, But bid farewell, and go: when you sued staying, Bliss in our brows' bent; none our parts so poor, Art turn'd the greatest liar. ANTONY AND CLEOPATRA, A. 1, s. 3. LOVE OFT FAILS WHEN CEREMONY COMMENCES. THOU hast describ'd A hot friend cooling: Ever note, Lucilius, There are no tricks in plain and simple faith: Make gallant show and promise of their mettle; JULIUS CÆSAR, A. 4, s. 2. LOVE ONE-SIDED. I DO affect the very ground, which is base, where her shoe, which is baser, guided by her foot, which is basest, doth tread. I shall be foresworn, (which is a great argument of falsehood,) if I love: And how can that be true love, which is falsely attempted? Love is a familiar; love is a devil: there is no evil angel but love. Yet Sampson was so tempted; and he had an excellent strength: yet was Solomon so seduced; and he had a very good wit. Cupid's butt-shaft is too hard for Hercules' club, and therefore too much odds for a Spaniard's rapier. The first and second cause will not serve my turn; the passado he respects not, the duello he regards not his disgrace is to be called boy; but his glory is, to subdue men. Adieu, valour! rust, rapier! be still, drum! for your manager is in love; yea, he loveth. Assist me some extemporal god of rhyme, for, I am sure, I shall turn sonneteer. Devise, wit; write, pen; for I am for whole volumes in folio. LOVE'S LABOUR'S LOST, A. 1, s. 2. LOVE OVERPOWERING DUTY. CALL here my varlet, I'll unarm again: Why should I war without the walls of Troy, That find such cruel battle here within ? Each Trojan, that is master of his heart, Let him to field; Troilus, alas! hath none. The Greeks are strong, and skilful to their strength, Fierce to their skill, and to their fierceness valiant ; But I am weaker than a woman's tear, TROILUS AND CRESSIDA, A. 1, s. 1. LOVE SCOLDING A PRETENDER. PROFANE fellow! Wert thou the son of Jupiter, and no more, He never can meet more mischance, than come To be but nam'd of thee. His meanest garment, That ever hath but clipp'd his body, is dearer, In my respect, than all the hairs above thee, Were they all made such men. CYMBELINE, A. 2, s. 3. LOVE, THE MIGHTY CONQUEROR COMES SOMETIMES WHEN LEAST EXPECTED. O! AND I, forsooth, in love! I, that have been. love's whip; A. very beadle to a humorous sigh; A critick; nay, a night-watch constable; This wimpled, whining, purblind, wayward boy; Sole imperator, and great general And wear his colours like a tumbler's hoop! |
