Side 57 - Go, Soul, the body's guest, Upon a thankless arrant: Fear not to touch the best; The truth shall be thy warrant: Go, since I needs must die, And give the world the lie. Say to the court, it glows And shines like rotten wood; Say to the church it shows What's good, and doth no good: If church and court reply, Then give them both the lie.

Side 58 - EVEN such is time, that takes in trust Our youth, our joys, our all we have, And pays us but with age and dust ; Who in the dark and silent grave, When we have wandered all our ways, Shuts up the story of our days ; But from this earth, this grave, this dust, My God shall raise me up, I trust.

Side 71 - The first that appeared unto us we entered, though not without some difficulty, and cast anchor about three harquebus-shot within the haven's mouth, on the left hand of the same...
Side 41 - Now what is love I pray thee, tell? It is that fountain and that well, Where pleasure and repentance dwell. It is perhaps that sauncing bell, That tolls all in to heaven or hell: And this is love, as I heard tell.
Side 32 - I know I have the body of a weak and feeble woman, but I have the heart and stomach of a king, and of a king of England too...
Side 201 - When we came thither, we found the fort razed down, but all the houses standing unhurt, saving that the neather (outer) rooms of them, and also of the fort, were overgrown with melons of divers sorts, and deer within them, feeding on those melons ; so we returned to our company, without hope of ever seeing any of the fifteen men living.
