    “The man whose silent days
    In harmless joys are spent,
    Whom hopes cannot delude,

    Nor armour for defence,
    Nor secret vaults to fly
    From thunder’s violence.”
    —Thomas Campion (1567–1620)

    And winter his delights;
    Though love and all his pleasures are but toys,
    They shorten tedious nights.”
