John Cleveland

"Had Cain been Scot, God would have changed his doom; Not made him wander, but continued him home."

"Like an ambassador that beds a queen With the nice caution of a sword between."

"He that to ancient wreaths can bring no more From his own worth, dies bankrupt on the score."

"The marigold, whose courtier's face Echoes the sun, and doth unlace Her at his rise, at his full stop Packs and shuts up her gaudy shop."
