“Injurious Time now, with a robbers haste,
Crams his rich thievery up, he knows not how;
As many farewells as be stars in heaven,
With distinct breath and consigned kisses to them,
He fumbles up into a loose adieu,
And scants us with a single famished kiss,
Distasted with the salt of broken tears.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)

Made of a heart, and cemented with tears:
Whose parts are as thy hand did frame;
No workmans tool hath touched the same.”
