Those amorous thoughts which were so lightly dressed,  What are they when the double death is nigh?  The one I know for sure, the other dread. Painting nor sculpture now can lull to rest  My soul that turns to His great love on high,  Whose arms to clasp us on the cross were spread.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6544</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are only two ways to live your life.
