Let those love now who never lov'd before,
More quotes by Thomas Parnell
Let those love now who never loved before;
Let those who always loved, now love the more.
Still an angel appear to each lover beside,
But still be a woman to you.
Remote from man, with God he passed the days;
Prayer all his business, all his pleasure praise.
Death's but a path that must be trod,
If man would ever pass to God.
You may also like
Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,
And therefore is wing'd Cupid painted blind.
To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.
Not for the body, but for the heart; companion and company are needed.
Love seldom haunts the breast where learning lies,
And Venus sets ere Mercury can rise.
