Additional quotes by Edward Fairfax

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

High state, the bed is where misfortune lies,
Mars most unfriendly, when most kind he seems,
Who climbeth high, on earth he hardest lights,
And lowest falls attend the highest flights.

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.
