"Tell me what you find better, or more honourable than age. Is not wisdom entaild upon it? Take the pre-eminence of it in every thing; in an old friend, in old wine, in an old pedigree."

"Oh! that I were a veil upon that face, To hide it from the world! Methinks I could Envy the very sun for gazing on you!"
