Like an ambassador that beds a queen
More quotes by John Cleveland
He that to ancient wreaths can bring no more
From his own worth, dies bankrupt on the score.
Had Cain been Scot, God would have changed his doom;
Not made him wander, but continued him home.
Never Mark Antony
Dallied more wantonly
With the fair Egyptian Queen.
Now to the melting Kiss that sips
The Jellyed Philtre of her Lips
