Men's Vows Are Women's Traitors

Sweet Mercy Is Nobility's True Badge.

What Can Be Happier Than For A Man, Conscious Of Virtuous Acts, And Content With Liberty, To Despise All Human Affairs?

Beauty Too Rich For Use, For Earth Too Dear.

Had I But Served My God With Half The Zeal I Served My King, He Would Not In Mine Age Have Left Me Naked To Mine Enemies.

Pride Went Before, Ambition Follows Him.
