Together, Perfected
Therefore I’ll lie with love, and love with me,
Since that our faults in love thus smother’d be.

How to Know
He that is thy friend indeed,
He will help thee in thy need:
If thou sorrow, he will weep;
If thou wake, he cannot sleep;
Thus of every grief in heart
He with thee doth bear a part.
These are certain signs to know
Faithful friend from flattering foe.–The Passionate Pilgrim

a shining gloss that fadeth suddenly;
a flower that dies when first it ‘gins to bud.— The Passionate Pilgrim
