Famous quotes containing the word ayton:

    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)

    The morning rose, that untouched stands
    Armed with her briars, how sweet she smells!
    But plucked and strained through ruder hands,
    Her sweets no longer with her dwells,
    But scent and beauty both are gone,
    And leaves fall from her, one by one.
    —Sir Robert Ayton (1570–1638)
