On not falling (in love)

Published by kotty at 4:15 am under Uncategorized Edit This

So after men’s favorable voice given in the praise of this rhyme, and after sufficient talk, the Lord Octavian Fregoso whose turn was then next, began in this sort, smiling:

“My lords, if I should say unto you that I never felt passion of love in my days, I am sure the Duchess and the Lady Emilia, although they believed it not, yet would they make semblant to believe it, and would say that it proceeded because I mistrusted I should never frame any woman to love me. The which truly I have not hitherto proved with such instance, and thus for this reason I should despair to obtain it once. Neither have I forborne the doing of it, because I set so much by myself and so little by women, that I think none worthy to bestow my love and service upon. But rather amazed at the continual bewailings of some lovers, who with their paleness, sorrow, and silence, appear to have evermore their own discomfort painted in their eyes. And if they speak, accompanying every word with certain triple-fold sighs, they reason of nothing else, but of tears, of torments, of desperations, vw car bra and of longing for death. So that whensoever any sparkle of love hath begun to kindle in my breast, I have by and by enforced myself with all diligence to quench it, not for any hatred that I have conceived against women (as these ladies suppose) but for mine own health.”
