As yourselves your empires fall, And every kingdom hath a grave. - [Royalty] He who is good is happy. - [Happiness] No distinction is 'tween man and man, But as his virtues add to him a glory Or vices cloud him. - [Birth] Like the violet, which alone Prospers in some happy shade, My Castara lives unknown To no looser eye betrayed. - Castara, (in Elton's edition, p. 166) [Modesty] The starres, bright sentinels of the skies. - Dialogue between Night and Araphil (l. 3) [Stars] As ourselves your empires fall, And every kingdom hath a grave. - Night [Royalty] I hate the countrie's dirt and manners, yet I love the silence; I embrace the wit; A courtship, flowing here in full tide. But loathe the expense, the vanity and pride. No place each way is happy. - To my Noblest Friend, I.C. Esquire [Country Life]
