said soon amended Love and businesse find eloquence Love is not found in the Market Love and a cough cannot be hid Longs more to marrage the four bare legs in a bed Learn weeping and thou shalt laugh gaming Let all live as they would die Like a chip in pottage doth neither good nor harm Like will to like Life without a friend is death without witnesse Long absent soon forgotten Love and Lordship
