But being got it is a treasure sweet,
Which to defend is harder than to get:
And ought not be prophaned on either part,
For though tis got by chance, tis kept by art.”

“In the vale of restless mind
I sought in mountain and in mead,
Trusting a true love for to find.”

All that man is,
All mere complexities,
The fury and the mire of human veins.”
