That woman I once was,
in a black agate necklace,
I do not wish to meet again
till the Day of Judgement.

And swear
No where
Lives a woman true and fair.
If thou find'st one, let me know,
Such a pilgrimage were sweet;
Yet do not, I would not go,
Though at next door we might meet,
Though she were true, when you met her,
And last, till you write your letter,
Yet she
Will be
False, ere I come, to two, or three.

 

John Donne

 

Men of ill judgement oft ignore the good
That lies within their hands, till they have lost it.
