LOVE.

Naught sweeter is than love. Whom that doth bless

Regardeth all things less.

If thou first taste of love, then shalt thou see

Honey shall bitter be!

What roses are, they never know, who miss

Fair Cytherea's kiss.

--_Nossis, Greek._

_Translated by Lilla Cabot Perry._

How often love is maintained by wealth:

When all is spent adversity then breeds

The discontent.

--_Herrick._

1182

The moment one is in love one becomes so amiable.
