The kiss you take, is paid by that you give:
More quotes by George Granville, 1st Baron Lansdowne
Fate holds the strings, and men like children move
But as they're led: success is from above.
Thy thoughts to nobler meditations give,
And study how to die, not how to live.
Beauty by no complexion is defin'd,
Is of all colours, and to none confin'd.
Whoe'er thou art, thy Lord and master see,
Thou wast my Slave, thou art, or thou shalt be.
Youth is the proper time for love,
And age is virtue's season.
