 Under the opening eye-lids of the morn.

 Vain wisdom all, and false philosophy.

 Virtue could see to do what Virtue would / By her own radiant light, though sun and moon / Were in the flat sea sunk.

 Virtue may be assailed, but never hurt, / Surprised by unjust force, but not enthralled.

 Virtue may be assailed, but never hurt, Surprised by unjust force, but not enthralled; Yea even that which mischief meant most harm - Shall in the happy trial prove most glory

 Virtue that wavers is not virtue.

 Was I deceived, or did a sable cloud / Turn forth her silver lining on the night?

 We are at the max, ... We can't add anything out here without taking away something else.

 We believe the bridge has a 20-year life span left. That's assuming no earthquakes and no bad storms,

 What boots it at one gate to make defence,/ And at another to let in the foe?

 What call thou solitude? Is not the earth with various living creatures, and the air replenished, and all these at thy command to come and play before thee?

 What hath night to do with sleep?

 What in me is dark, Illumine, what is low raise and support, That to the height of this great argument I may assert eternal Providence, And justify the ways of God to men

 What is strength without a double share of wisdom?

 What needs my Shakespeare, for his honoured bones, / The labour of an age in pilèd stones?
