Too oft before their buttons be disclosed; Weigh what loss your honour may sustain, 36-i. 3. Or lose your heart; or your chaste treasure open To his unmastered importunity. Fear it, fear it, And keep you in the rear of your affection, Out of the shot and danger of desire. 36-i. 3. Do not, as some ungracious pastors do, 645 Beauty heightened by goodness. 36-i. 3. The hand, that hath made you fair, hath made you good: the goodness, that is cheap in beauty, makes beauty brief in goodness; but grace, being the soul of your complexion, should keep the body of it ever fair. 5-iii. 1. 646 Grief alleviated by submission to Heaven. Your part in her you could not keep from death; * Believing. § Careless. † Listen to. † Licentious. || Regards not his own lessons. O, in this love, you love your child so ill, 647 35-iv. 5. Conjugal affection needful in wives. Fie, fie, unknit that threat'ning unkind brow; 12-v. 2. Thy husband is thy lord, thy life, thy keeper, 12-v. 2. I am ashamed, that women are so simple 650 12-v. 2. The same. My noble father, I do perceive here a divided duty: To you, I am bound for life, and education; My life and education, both do learn me How to respect you; you are the lord of duty, I am hitherto your daughter: but here's my husband; And so much duty as my mother show'd To you, preferring you before her father, * Gentle tempers. 37-i. 3. So much I challenge, that I may profess 651 The venomous effects of jealousy. The meat it feeds on. 37-iii. 3. But yet, I do not like but yet, it does allay But yet is as a gaoler to bring forth Some monstrous malefactor. 653 30-ii. 5. Violent delights have short duration. Violent delights have violent ends, And in their triumph die; like fire and powder, Which, as they kiss, consume: the sweetest honey Is loathsome in his own deliciousness, And in the taste confounds the appetite: Therefore, love moderately; long love doth so, Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.t 654 35-ii. 5. Delusion. For love of grace, Lay not that flattering unction to your soul; 36-iii. 4. That monster, custom, who all sense doth eat That to the use of actions fair and good To the next abstinence: the next more easy: * Preceding. 36-iii. 4. † Precipitation produces mishap. Leave her to heaven, And to those thorns that in her bosom lodge, To prick and sting her. Thou hast cleft my heart in twain. And live the purer with the other half. 658 Lay aside life-harming heaviness, And entertain a cheerful disposition. 36-i. 5. 36-iii. 4. 17-ii. 2. Canst thou not minister to a mind diseased; Which weighs upon the heart? 15-v. 3. 660 Resignation to the will of God enjoined. Do not, for ever, with thy vailed lids Seek for thy nobler father in the dust: Thou know'st, 'tis common; all, that live, must die, Passing through nature to eternity. 36-i. 2. 661 The value of faithful servants. If I Had servants true about me ;† that bare eyes To see alike mine honour, as their profits, Their own particular thrifts, they would do that, Which should undo more doing. 662 The severity of age to youth. 13-i. 2. You, that are old, consider not the capacities of us that are young; you measure the heat of our livers with the bitterness of your galls. 19-i. 2. 663 Youth. Deal mildly with his youth; For young hot colts, being raged, do rage the more. 17-ii. 1. * All the editions read stuff'd, which is evidently wrong. It should be foul bosom, as in As You Like It: "Cleanse the foul body of the infected world." -Act. ii. scene 7. † Eph. vi. 5-7. 664 Oppression to be avoided. Press not a falling man too far; 'tis virtue: Let us be keen, and rather cut a little, 25-iii. 2. 5-ii. 1. Turn head, and stop pursuit: for coward dogs I hate ingratitude more in a man, Than lying, vainness, babbling, drunkenness, Or any taint of vice, whose strong corruption Inhabits our frail blood. 20-ii. 4. 4-iii. 4. Pray be counsell'd: I have a heart as little apt as yours, To better vantage. 28-iii. 2. Though all the world should crack their duty to you, And throw it from their soul; though perils did Abound, as thick as thought could make them, and Appear in forms more horrid; yet my duty, Should the approach of this wild river break, 25-iii. 2. The truth you speak doth lack some gentleness, When you should bring the plaster. * Waste, exhaust. 1-ii. 1. |
