CARE.
When one is past, another care we have;
Thus woe succeeds a woe, as wave a wave.
Sorrows Succeed. R. HERRICK.
Old Care has a mortgage on every estate,
And that's what you pay for the wealth that you get.
Gifts of the Gods. J.G. SAXE.
O polished perturbation! golden care!
That keepest the ports of slumber open wide
To many a watchful night!
K. Henry IV., Pt. II. Act iv. Sc. 5. SHAKESPEARE.
Let one unceasing, earnest prayer
Be, too, for light,—for strength to bear
Our portion of the weight of care,
That crushes into dumb despair
One half the human race.
The Goblet of Life. H.W. LONGFELLOW.
Let the world slide, let the world go:
A fig for care, and a fig for woe!
If I can't pay, why I can owe,
And death makes equal the high and low.
Be Merry Friends. J. HEYWOOD.
Begone, dull Care, I prithee begone from me;
Begone, dull Care, thou and I shall never agree.
Begone, Old Care. PLAYFORD'S Musical Companion.
