Suckling

Famous quotes containing the word suckling:

    Will, when speaking well can’t win her,
    Saying nothing do’t?
    Prithee, why so mute?
    —Sir John Suckling (1609–1642)

    Thus while I sit and sigh the day
    With all his borrow’d lights away,
    Till night’s black wings do overtake me,
    Thinking on thee, thy beauties then,
    As sudden lights do sleepy men,
    So they by their bright rays awake me.
    —Sir John Suckling (1609–1642)

    Quit, quit, for shame; this will not move,
    This cannot take her.
    If of herself she will not love,
    Nothing can make her:
    The devil take her!
    —Sir John Suckling (1609–1642)
