“With fairest flowers
Whilst summer lasts and I live here, Fidele,
Ill sweeten thy sad grave. Thou shalt not lack
The flower thats like thy face, pale primrose, nor
The azured harebell, like thy veins; no, nor
The leaf of eglantine, whom not to slander,
Outsweetened not thy breath.”

Or strike him with a hatchet,
He is permitted by the King
To drop all formal parleying
And then youre sure to catch it!”
