"Ever note, Lucilius,
When love begins to sicken and decay
It useth an enforced ceremony.
There are no tricks in plain and simple faith;
But hollow men, like horses hot at hand,
Make gallant show and promise of their mettle;
But when they should endure the bloody spur,
They fall their crests, and like deceitful jades
Sink in the trial."
Author: William Shakespeare

A wind that follows fast
And fills the white and rustling sails,
And bends the gallant mast!

While, like the eagle free,
Away the good ship flies, and leaves
Old England in the lee."
