A moth of peace, and he go to the war,

And I a heavy interim shall support
By his dear absence. Let me go with him.”

—Bertolt Brecht (1898–1956)
“Here we’ll strip and cool our fire
In cream below, in milk-baths higher;
And when all wells are drawn dry,
I’ll drink a tear out of thine eye.”
—Richard Lovelace (1618–1658)
