Tricks Bid

Famous quotes containing the words tricks and/or bid:

    Man, proud man,
    Drest in a little brief authority,
    Most ignorant of what he’s most assur’d,
    His glassy essence, like an angry ape,
    Plays such fantastic tricks before high heaven,
    As make the angels weep.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Love must not be, but take a body too,
    And therefore what thou wert, and who,
    I bid Love aske, and now
    That it assume thy body, I allow,
    And fixe it selfe in thy lip, eye, and brow.
    John Donne (1572–1631)
