In the first days
Of my distracting grief, I found myself
As women wish to be who love their lords.
I 'll woo her as the lion wooes his brides.

My father feeds his flocks; a frugal swain,
Whose constant cares were to increase his store,
And keep his only son, myself, at home.
A rude and boisterous captain of the sea.
Like Douglas conquer, or like Douglas die.
The truly generous is the truly wise, and he who loves not others, lives unblest.
Luxury may possibly contribute to give bread to the poor; but if there were no luxury, there would be no poor.
