My part of death, no one so true Did share it. Not a flower, not a flower sweet, On my black coffin let there be strown...
Page 50 - A blank, my lord : She never told her love, But let concealment, like a worm i' the bud, Feed on her damask cheek : she pined in thought; And, with a green and yellow melancholy, She sat like patience on a monument, Smiling at grief.
