SIR WALTER RALEIGH QUOTES
|
|
- 'Know that Love is a careless child,
- And forgets promises past;
- He is blind, he is deaf when he list,
- And in faith never fast.
- 'His desire is a dureless content,
- And a trustless joy;
- He is won with a world of despair,
- And is lost with a toy.
SIR WALTER RALEIGH, As Ye Came from the Holy Land
- 'Of womenkind such indeed is the love,
- Or the word love abused,
- Under which many childish desires
- And conceits are excused.
SIR WALTER RALEIGH, As Ye Came from the Holy Land
- True love is a durable fire,
- In the mind ever burning.
SIR WALTER RALEIGH, As Ye Came from the Holy Land
- Love likes not the falling fruit,
- Nor the withered tree.
