“How oft when men are at the point of death
Have they been merry! which their keepers call

Call this a lightning? O my love! my wife!

Hath had no power yet upon thy beauty:
Thou art not conquered; beautys ensign yet
Is crimson in thy lips and in thy cheeks,
And deaths pale flag is not advanced there.”
