157 ページ - ... the worm that dieth not, and the fire that is not quenched.

482 ページ - With coral clasps and amber studs: And if these pleasures may thee move, Come live with me, and be my love.
481 ページ - No, I thank you; but, I pray, do us a courtesy that shall stand you and your daughter in nothing, and yet we will think ourselves still something in your debt: it is but to sing us a song that was sung by your daughter when I last passed over this meadow, about eight or nine days since. MILK- WOMAN. What song was it, I pray? Was it, "Come, shepherds, deck your herds"? or "As at noon Dulcina rested"?
