Man is his own star, and the soul that canRender an honest and a perfect manCommands all light, all influence, all fate.Nothing to him falls early, or too late.Our acts our angels are, or good or ill,Our fatal shadows that walk by us still.
That soul that canBe honest is the only perfect man.
Weep no more, nor sigh, nor groan,Sorrow calls no time that's gone;Violets plucked, the sweetest rainMakes not fresh nor grow again.
Of all the paths lead to a woman's lovePity's the straightest.
There is no jesting with edge tools.
Let's meet and either do or die.
Hence, all you vain delights,As short as are the nightsWherein you spend your folly!There's naught in this life sweetBut only melancholy;O sweetest melancholy!
Drink today, and drown all sorrow;You shall perhaps not do't tomorrow.
And he that will to bed go soberFalls with the leaf in October.
Three merry boys, and three merry boys,And three merry boys are we.As ever did sing in a hempen stringUnder the gallows tree.
