The throne of Cupid had an easy stair;
His bark is fit to sail with every wind;
The breach he makes no wisdom can repair.

Additional quotes by Edward Fairfax

Aurora bright her crystal gates unbarred,
And bridegroom-like forth stept the glorious sun.

Out of the hierarchies of angels sheen
The gentle Gabriel called he from the rest,
'Twixt God and souls of men that righteous been
Ambassador is he, forever blest,
The just commands of Heaven's Eternal King,
'Twixt skies and earth, he up and down doth bring.

O poverty, chief of the heavenly brood.

The throne of Cupid had an easy stair; His bark is fit to sail with every wind; The breach he makes no wisdom can repair. - Edward Fairfax
