But, look, the morn, in russet mantle clad, Walks o'er the dew of yon high eastward hill.
The memory be green.
With an auspicious and a dropping eye, With mirth in funeral and with dirge in marriage, In equal scale weighing delight and dole.
A violet in the youth of primy nature, Forward, not permanent, sweet, not lasting,
The perfume and suppliance of a minute.
And keep you in the rear of your affection, Out of the shot and danger of desire,
The chariest maid is prodigal enough If she unmasks her beauty to the moon."
Do not, as some ungracious pastors do, Show me the steep and thorny way to heaven;
Whiles, like a puffed and reckless libertine, Himself the primrose path of dalliance treads,
And recks not his own rede.
Give thy thoughts no tongue.
The friends thou hast, and their adoption tried, Grapple them to thy soul with hoops of steel.
The apparel oft proclaims the man.
Neither a borrower nor a lender be; For loan oft loses both itself and friend, And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry.
This above all: to thine own self be true, And it must follow, as the night the day, Thou canst not then be false to any man.
You speak like a green girl, Unsifted in such perilous circumstance.
When the blood burns, how prodigal the soul Lends the tongue vows.
Be somewhat scanter of your maiden presence.
It is a nipping and an eager air.
But to my mind, - though I am native here And to the manner born, - it is a custom More honoured in the breach than the observance.
