These violent delights have violent ends
And in their triumph die, like fire and powder
That such a crafty devil as is his mother
Should yield the world this ass!
But now I see our lances are but straws,
Our strength as weak
I fear thou'lt once more come again for ransom.
Well then, confess and live.
Scrambling, out-facing, fashion-monging boys,
That lie and cog and flout, deprave and slander,
Go anticly, show outward hideousness
Why, boy! why, wag! how now! what's the matter?
Look up; speak.
Why do you put these sayings upon me?
Sap cheque'd with frost and lusty leaves quite gone,
Beauty o'ersnow'd and bareness every where
There's letters seal'd: and my two schoolfellows,
Whom I will trust as I will adders fang'd,
They bear the mandate
