you will thunder along the cliff
break retreat get fresh strength
gather and pour weight upon the beach.”

That wash the pebbles with their wanton streams,
And having ranged and searched a thousand nooks,
Meet both at length in silver-breasted Thames
Where in a greater current they conjoin:
So I my Best-Beloveds am, so he is mine.”
—Francis Quarles (15921644)
“Droplets of rain can soak through your clothes; goblets of wine can wash away your wealth.”
