William Warner Quotes

“We thinke no greater blisse then such
To be as be we would,
When blessed none but such as be
The same as be they should.”

William Warner

Thinking

“With that she dasht her on the lippes,
So dyed double red:
Hard was the heart that gave the blow,
Soft were those lips that bled.”

William Warner

Albion’s England (published 1612), Book viii. chap. xli. stanza 53.
