Dainty June

Famous quotes containing the words dainty and/or june:

    Will you buy any tape,
    Or lace for your cape,
    My dainty duck, my dear-a?
    Any silk, and thread,
    And toys for your head,
    Of the new’st and finest, finest wear-a?
    Come to the pedlar;
    Money’s a meddler,
    That doth utter all men’s ware-a.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Ask me no more where Jove bestows,
    When June is past, the fading rose;
    For in your beauty’s orient deep
    These flowers, as in their causes, sleep.

    Ask me no more whither do stray
    The golden atoms of the day;
    For in pure love heaven did prepare
    Those powders to enrich your hair.
    Thomas Carew (1589–1639)
