Pagina 319 - This is the prettiest low-born lass that ever Ran on the green-sward : nothing she does or seems But smacks of something greater than herself, Too noble for this place.
Pagina 459 - Subtle as sphinx; as sweet and musical As bright Apollo's lute, strung with his hair ; And, when Love speaks, the voice of all the gods Makes heaven drowsy with the harmony.
