Still to our gains our chief respect is had ;
Reward it is that makes us good or bad.

Those ends in war the best contentment bring,
Whose peace is made up with a pardoning.

Satisfaction For Sufferings

For all our works a recompence is sure;
'Tis sweet to think on what was hard t'endure.

Dreams

Here we are all, by day; by night we're hurl'd
By dreams, each one into a several world.

Money Makes The Mirth

When all birds else do of their music fail,
Money's the still-sweet-singing nightingale!

Soft Music

The mellow touch of music most doth wound
The soul, when it doth rather sigh, than sound.

The Heart

In prayer the lips ne'er act the winning part
Without the sweet concurrence of the heart.
