Faire

Famous quotes containing the word faire:

    You have beheld a smiling Rose
    When Virgins hands have drawn
    O’r it a Cobweb-Lawne:
    And here, you see, this Lilly shows,
    Tomb’d in a Christal stone,
    More faire in this transparent case,
    Than when it grew alone;
    And had but single grace.
    Robert Herrick (1591–1674)

    Joy may you have and gentle hearts content
    Of your loves couplement:
    And let faire Venus, that is Queene of love,
    With her heart-quelling Sonne upon you smile,
    Edmund Spenser (1552?–1599)

    Followe thy faire sunne, unhappy shadowe,
    Though thou be blacke as night,
    And she made all of light,
    Yet follow thy faire sun, unhappie shadowe.
    Thomas Campion (1567–1620)
