Now by the jealous queen of heaven, that kiss I carried from thee, dear; my true lip hath virgined it ever since.
      - [Kisses]

Now from head to foot I am marble-constant: now the fleeting moon
  No planet is of mine.
      - [Constancy]

Now God be praised, that to believing souls,
  Gives light in darkness, comfort in despair!
      - [Belief]

Now see that noble and most sovereign reason, like sweet bells jangled, out of time; and harsh.
      - [Madness]

Now spurs the lated traveler apace
  To gain the timely inn.
      - [Inns]

Now the time is come,
  That France must veil her lofty-plumed crest,
    And let her head fall into England's lap.
      - [Victory]

Now, ere the sun advance his burning eye,
  The day to cheer, and night's dank dew to dry.
      - [Sun]

Now, my masters, happy man be his dole, say I; every man to his business.
      - [Vocations]

Nymph, in thy orisons be all my sins remembered!
      - [Prayer]

O comfort-killing Night, image of hell!
  Dim register and notary of shame!
    Black stage for tragedies and murders fell!
      Vast, sin-concealing chaos! nurse of blame!
        Blind, muffled bawd! dark harbor for defame!
          Grim cave of death! whispering conspirator
            With close-tongued treason and the ravisher!
      - [Night]

O dishonest wretch!
  Wilt thou be made a man out of my vice?
      - [Vice]

O dissembling courtesy! how fine this tyrant can tickle where she wounds!
      - [Courtesy]

O earth! I will befriend thee more with rain than youthful April shall with all his showers; in summer's drought I'll drop upon thee still.
      - [Rain]

O father, what a hell of witchcraft lies
  In the small orb of one particular tear!
      - [Tears]

O God! O God! How weary, stale, fiat, and unprofitable seem to me all the uses of this world!
      - [Despair]

O hateful Error, Melancholy's child!
  Why dost thou show to the apt thoughts of men
    The things that are not? O Error, soon conceiv'd,
      Thou never com'st unto a happy birth,
        But kill'st the mother that engender'd thee.
      - [Error]

O heaven! that one might read the book of fate, and see the revolution of the times.
      - [Future]

O heaven, that such companions thou 'ldst unfold, and put in every honest hand a whip to lash the rascals naked through the world.
      - [Retribution]

O heavens! that one might read the book of fate,
  And see the revolutions of the times
    Make mountains level, and the continent,
      (Weary of solid firmness,) melt itself
        Into the sea.
      - [Future]

O if this were seen!
  The happiest youth--viewing his progress through
    What perils past, what crosses to ensue--
      Would shut the book, and sit him down and die.
      - [Future]

O Lord, that lends me life, lend me a heart replete with thankfulness.
      - [Gratitude]

O mighty Caesar! dost thou lie so low? Are all thy conquests, glories, triumphs, spoils, shrunk to this little measure?
      - [Death]

O monstrous arrogance, thou liest, thou thread,
  Thou thimble,
    Thou yard, three-quarters, half-yard, quarter, nail,
      Thou flea, thou nit, thou winter-cricket, thou:--
        Brav'd in mine own house with a skein of thread!
          Away thou rag, thou quantity, thou remnant;
            Or I shall so be-mete thee with thy yard,
              As thou shalt think on prating whilst thou liv'st!
      - [Tailors]

O place and greatness! millions of false eyes
  Are stuck upon thee; volumes of reports
    Run with these false and most contrarious quests
      Upon thy doings: thousand escapes of wit
        Make thee the father of their idle dream,
          And wrack thee in their fancies.
      - [Office]

O polish'd perturbation! golden care!
  That keep'st the ports of slumber open wide
    To many a watchful night! sleep with it now!
      Yet not so sound and half so deeply sweet
        As he whose brow with homely biggen bound
          Snores out the watch of night.
      - [Sleep]
