Kind Katherine to her husband kiss'd these words,
"Mine own sweet Will, how dearly do I love thee!"
"If true," quoth Will, "the world no such affords."
And that it's true I durst his warrant be:
For ne'er heard I of woman, good or ill,
But always lovèd best her own sweet will.

More quotes by Henry Parrot

Dacus doth daily to his doctor go,
As doubting if he be in health or no;
For when his friends salute him passing by,
And ask him how he doth in courtesy,
He will not answer thereunto precise,
Till from his doctor he hath ta'en advice.

Sir, can you tell where young Pandorus lives,
That was surnamed here the Prodigal:
He that so much for his silk stockings gives,
Till nought is left to buy him shoes withal?
Oh blame him not, to make what show he can;
How should he else be thought a gentleman?

And yet I love her till I die.
