    To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose
    under the heaven:
    A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time
    to pluck up that which is planted;
    A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a
    time to build up;
    A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time
    to dance;
    A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together;
    a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
    A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to
    cast away;
    A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a
    time to speak;
    A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of
    peace.

As Love and I late harbour'd in one inn,
With proverbs thus each other entertain;
"In love read more

As Love and I late harbour'd in one inn,
With proverbs thus each other entertain;
"In love there is no lack," thus I begin;
"Fair words make fools," replieth he again;
"Who spares to speak doth spare to speed," quoth I;
"As well," saith he, "too forward as too slow";
"Fortune assists the boldest," I reply;
"A hasty man," quote he, "ne'er wanted woe";
"Labour is light where love," quote I, "doth pay";
"Light burden's heavy, if far borne";
Quoth I, "The main lost, cast the by away";
"Y'have spun a fair thread," he replies in scorn.
And having thus awhile each other thwarted
Fools as we met, so fools again we parted.
