An unrelenting foe to love;
And when we meet a mutual heart, Come in between and bid us part? 752 THOMSON: _Song._ =Frailty.= Frailty, thy name is Woman! 753 SHAKS.: _Hamlet,_ Act i., Sc. 2. I am the cygnet to this pale faint swan, Who chants a doleful hymn to his own death, And from the organ-pipe of frailty sings His soul and body to their lasting rest. 754 SHAKS.: _King John,_ Act v., Sc. 7. =France.= 'Tis better using France, than trusting France; Let us be back'd with God, and with the seas, Which he hath given for fence impregnable, And with their helps only defend ourselves; In them, and in ourselves, our safety lies. 755 SHAKS.: _3 Henry VI.,_ Act iv., Sc. 1. |
