“Drink to me only with thine eyes,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And I will pledge with mine;<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Or leave a kiss but in the cup<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And I’ll not ask for wine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The thirst that from the soul doth rise<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Doth ask a drink divine;<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But might I of Jove’s nectar sup,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I would not change for thine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I sent thee late a rosy wreath,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Not so much honouring thee<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As giving it a hope that there<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It could not wither’d be; <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But thou thereon didst only breathe,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And sent’st it back to me;<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Since when it grows, and smells, I swear,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Not of itself but thee!” Ben Jonson.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Islander.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" “Drink to me only with thine eyes, And I will pledge with mine; Or leave a kiss but in the cup And I’ll not ask for wine.
