Page 184 - If ever you have looked on better days; If ever been where bells have knolled to church; If ever sat at any good man's feast; If ever from your eyelids wiped a tear, And know what 'tis to pity, and be pitied; Let gentleness my strong enforcement be : In the which hope, I blush, and hide my sword.
