Whatsoever Venus bids
Is a joy excelling,
Never in an evil heart
Did she make her dwelling.

Quicquid Venus imperat
Labor est suavis,
quę nunquam in cordibus
habitat ignavis.

More quotes by Archpoet

For on this my heart is set:
When the hour is nigh me,
Let me in the tavern die,
With a tankard by me.

Mortuus in anima
curam gero cutis.

Seething over inwardly
With fierce indignation,
In my bitterness of soul,
Hear my declaration.
I am of one element,
Levity my matter,
Like enough a withered leaf
For the winds to scatter.
