O knihe

Excerpt from English Writers, Vol. 1 of 2: An Attempt Towards a History of English Literature

To all this the liegeman of Love replies that he cannot abate his passion for the Rose; and, to turn the tables on his monitress, accuses her of an immodest word. Reason replies as we have seen, and leaves the Lover to his own devices.

He looks for the Friend who had before advised him, and who advises him now that, if he has had one kiss from his mistress, he will have another; but he should affect a little indifference, and must win to his side the custodians of fair-reception-evil-mouth, Jealousy, Shame, and Danger. The Lover objects to soft dealing with those whom he would like to see hanged. There is another way, says the Friend, if you were rich enough, and that is lavish-giving. It is a road made of old time by Bounty. Every tower falls before those who travel by this road; but on that way I am too poor to be your guide.
