    Never say a humorous thing to a man who does not possess humour. He will always use it in evidence against you.

    But I, being man, can kiss
    And bed-spread-eagle too;
    All flesh shall come to this,
    Being less than angel is,
    Yet higher far in bliss
    As it entwines with you.
    —William Robert Rodgers (1909–1969)

    And I shall sigh, when some will smile,
    To see thy love to every one
    Hath brought thee to be loved by none.
    —Sir Robert Ayton (1570–1638)
