These relics once, dear pledges of himself,
The traitor left me, which, O earth, to thee
Here on this very
threshold
I commit-
Pledges that bind him to redeem the debt.

Wilde - Selected Poems |
|
He was too well pleased to hear both
the men and the women of all factions and fancies
in religion
discourse
in their own method, and en-
larged himself in debate with them ; which made
every one believe that they were more favoured by
him than they had cause : which kind of liberty,
though at first it was accompanied with acclama-
tions, and acknowledgment of his being a prince of
rare parts and affability, yet it was attended after-
wards with ill consequences, and gave many men
opportunity to declare and publish, that the king
had said many things to them which he had never
said ; and made many concessions and promises to
them which he had never uttered or thought upon.

XLVII
Betwixt mine eye and heart a league is took,
And each doth good turns now unto the other:
When that mine eye is famish'd for a look,
Or heart in love with sighs himself doth smother,
With my love's picture then my eye doth feast,
And to the painted banquet bids my heart;
Another time mine eye is my heart's guest,
And in his
thoughts
of love doth share a part:
So, either by thy picture or my love,
Thy self away, art present still with me;
For thou not farther than my thoughts canst move,
And I am still with them, and they with thee;
Or, if they sleep, thy picture in my sight
Awakes my heart, to heart's and eye's delight.
