ocherdraco:
"When maiden loves, she sits and sighs"
ocherdraco:
I'm jealous of the very words I speak to you!
ocherdraco:
This, the Autumn of our lives
ocherdraco:
We still would face a foreign foe, as in days of long ago
ocherdraco:
Silence, you silly girl
ocherdraco:
The screw may twist and the rack may turn
ocherdraco:
The scheme is rash and well may fail; but ours are not the hearts that quail, the hands that shrink, the cheeks that pale, in hours of need
ocherdraco:
In this happy little community, Death, when he comes, doth so in punctual and businesslike fashion
ocherdraco:
Is life a boon?
ocherdraco:
I might have had to live another morn!
ocherdraco:
Come, fool, follify!
ocherdraco:
My masters, I pray you bear with us, and we will satisfy you
ocherdraco:
for we are merry folk who would make all as merry as ourselves
ocherdraco:
Willy nilly o!
ocherdraco:
I have a song to sing, O!
ocherdraco:
At the humble merrymaid, peerly proud, who loved a lord, and who laughed aloud
ocherdraco:
His pains were o'er, and he sighed no more, for he lived in the love of a ladye!
ocherdraco:
What is this pother?
ocherdraco:
Temptation, oh, temptation
ocherdraco:
Temptation, oh, temptation
ocherdraco:
Marry, sir, I have a pretty wit.
ocherdraco:
What is underdone cannot be helped!
ocherdraco:
'Tis done; I am a bride!
ocherdraco:
What bringest thou to me but gold and sadness?
ocherdraco:
O weary wives who widowhood would win, rejoice that ye have time to weary in.
ocherdraco:
The skylark's trill were but discordance shrill to the soft thrill of wooing as I'd woo
ocherdraco:
Were I thy bride!
