On the Sepulchre of our Lord

Here, where our Lord once laid his Head,
Now the grave lies buried.

On Marriage

I would be married, but I'd have no wife ;
I would be married to a single life.

Samson to his Delilah

Could not once blinding me, cruel, suffice?
When first I look'd on thee, I lost mine eyes.

On the Water of our Lord's Baptism

Each blest drop on each blest limb,
Is wash't itself, in washing Him :
'Tis a gem while it stays here ;
While it falls hence 'tis a tear.

Upon Ford's Two Tragedies

Love's Sacrifice, and the Broken Heart.

Thou cheat'st us, Ford, mak'st one seem two by art ;
What is love's sacrifice but the broken heart ?

But Men Loved Darkness rather than Light

The world's light shines, shine as it will,
The world will love its darkness still.
I doubt though when the world's in hell,
It will not love its darkness half so well.

On the Miracle of the Multiplied Loaves

See here an easy feast that knows no wound,
That under hunger's teeth will needs be sound;
A subtle harvest of unbounded bread,
What would ye more? Here food itself is fed.

On the Prodigal

Tell me, bright boy, tell me, my golden lad,
Whither away so frolic ? why so glad ?
What all thy wealth in council ? all thy state ?
Are husks so dear ? troth 'tis a mighty rate.
