    True, that true beauty virtue is indeed,
    Whereof this beauty can be but a shade,
    Which elements with mortal mixture breed.
    True, that on earth we are but pilgrims made,
    And should in soul up to our country move.
    True, and yet true that I must Stella love.
    —Sir Philip Sidney (1554–1586)

    The elephant, not only the largest but the most intelligent of animals, provides us with an excellent example. It is faithful and tenderly loving to the female of its choice, mating only every third year and then for no more than five days, and so secretly as never to be seen, until, on the sixth day, it appears and goes at once to wash its whole body in the river, unwilling to return to the herd until thus purified. Such good and modest habits are an example to husband and wife.
    St. Francis De Sales (1567–1622)
