What is life, when wanting love? Night without a morning; love's the cloudless summer sun, nature gay adorning.

No cord or cable can draw so forcibly, or bind so fast, as love can do with a single thread

To enlarge or illustrate this power and effect of love is to set a candle in the sun.

Most part of a lover's life is full of agony, anxiety, fear and grief, complaints, sighs, suspicions, and cares (heigh-ho my heart is woe), full of silence and irksome solitariness

Gay robbers came in last night and rearranged the living room

No cord or cable can draw so forcibly, or bind so fast, as love can do with a single thread.
