DAHLIA.
Thou canst not frown, thou canst not look askance,
Nor bite the lip, as angry wenches will;
Nor hast thou pleasure to be cross in talk;
But thou with mildness entertain’st thy wooers,
With gentle conference soft and affable.
Nor bite the lip, as angry wenches will;
Nor hast thou pleasure to be cross in talk;
But thou with mildness entertain’st thy wooers,
With gentle conference soft and affable.
Shakspeare.
Stiff in opinions, always in the wrong,
Everything by starts, and nothing long.
Everything by starts, and nothing long.
Dryden.
