Oh, but shee Is the true image not of what I am But what I was, when like the spring I wore My virgin roses on my cheeks. Lov. Madam, you seeme Lady. Angry at your impertinency; learne manners, leave me. Lov. She has coniurd downe my spirit: these are immodest devills that make modest ladyes become strickers .

For the place in viewe is dangerous and verye vnpleasing, and in the execution to passe Nothing may seeme more doubtful, for 14 leagues west within the cape of Saint Maria lyeth the first straight, where it floweth and ebbeth with violent swiftnes, the straight not half a mile broad, the first fall into which straight is verye dangerous and doubtfull.

The same I hope will happen to me of death.
For, even the discourses, which sterne antiquitie hath left us concerning this subject, seeme to me but faint and forcelesse in respect of the feeling I have of it; And in that point the effects exceed the very precepts of Philosophie. For me, be I well in my wit, Nought, as a merry friend, so fit.

Death is much less to us, we ought esteeme, If lesse may be, than what doth nothing seeme. Nor alive, nor dead, it doth concern you nothing. Alive because you are: Dead, because you are no more.
