Faith is the key that shuts the spring of love.
Alcida (1617)

Which, topp'd with pretty teats, discover down a vale
Wherein the God of Love may deign to sleep.
Morando (1587)
Her body Beauty's best-esteemèd bower,
Delicious, comely, dainty, without stain.
Menaphon (1589)

But those that are the traitors, them I hate.
Selimus (1594)
