    Since to the awe of thy imperious wit
    Our troublesome language bends, made only fit
    With her tough thick-ribbed hoops to gird about
    Thy giant fancy, which had proved too stout
    For their soft melting phrases.

    —Alice Thomas Ellis (b. 1932)

    Then give me leave to love, & love me too
    Not with designe
    To raise, as Loves curst Rebels doe,
    When puling Poets whine,
    Fame to their beauty, from their blubbr’d eyn.
    —Thomas Carew (1589–1639)
