Anne Bradstreet
Sweet words are like honey, a little may refresh, but too much gluts the stomach.
Anne Bradstreet
The stones and trees, insensible to time, / Nor age nor wrinkle on their front are seen / If Winter come, and greenness then do fade / A Spring returns, and they more youthful made / But man grows old, lies down, remains where once he's laid.

If we had no winter, the spring would not be so pleasant.

Anne Bradstreet
The world no longer lets me love, My hope and treasure are above.
Anne Bradstreet
And time brings down what is both strong and tall. But plants new set to be eradicate, And buds new blown, to have so short a date, Is by his hand alone that guides nature and fate.
Anne Bradstreet
What to my Saviour shall I giveWho freely hath done this for me?I'll serve him here whilst I shall liveAnd Loue him to Eternity
Anne Bradstreet
I am obnoxious to each carping tongue who says my hand a needle better fits.
Anne Bradstreet
The spring is a lively emblem of the Resurrection.
Anne Bradstreet
I happy am, if well with you.
Anne Bradstreet
Let Greeks be Greeks, and women what they are.
