Additional quotes by John Suckling

No grape, that’s kindly ripe, could be
So round, so plump, so soft as she, Nor half so full of juice.

Why so pale and wan, fond lover? Prithee why so pale?

Her feet beneath her petticoat
Like little mice stole in and out,
As if they feared the light;
But oh, she dances such a way!
No sun upon an Easter-day
Is half so fine a sight.

She's pretty to walk with, And witty to talk with, And pleasant, too, to think on. - John Suckling
