It strikes two hearts, this word of woe.
Through every joy of life it smites,-- Why, sometime they will know. 676 MARY CLEMMER: _Farewell._ Farewell! a word that must be, and hath been: A sound which makes us linger;--yet--farewell! 677 BYRON: _Ch. Harold,_ Canto iv., St. 186. =Fashion.= The fashion wears out more apparel than the man. 678 SHAKS.: _Much Ado,_ Act iii., Sc. 3. =Fate.= What fates impose, that men must needs abide; It boots not to resist both wind and tide. 679 SHAKS.: _3 Henry VI.,_ Act iv., Sc. 3. All human things are subject to decay, And when fate summons, monarchs must obey. 680 DRYDEN: _MacFlecknoe,_ Line 1. |
