An excerpt from The Tempest
by William Shakespeare |
|
Ferdinand: |
Admired Miranda!
|
|
Indeed the top of admiration! worth |
|
What's dearest to the world! Full many a lady |
|
I have eyed with best regard and many a time |
|
The harmony of their tongues hath into bondage |
|
Brought my too diligent ear: for several virtues |
|
Have I liked several women; never any |
|
With so fun soul, but some defect in her |
|
Did quarrel with the noblest grace she owed |
|
And put it to the foil: but you, O you, |
|
So perfect and so peerless, are created |
|
Of every creature's best! |
