Isso pode ser problema
As vezes basta uma lida
Para aliviar um pouco a vida”

Na Tempestade ou ao Léu
Não tem coisa mais bonita

“Encogida a ratos y a saltos después
Sangraron mi vida y a sangre maté.
Sé que, ya paloma, pesado ciprés.
O mata florida, lloré y más lloré.
Ya probando sales, ya probando miel,
Los ojos lloraron a más no poder.
Da entonces lo mismo, que lo he visto bien,
Ser rosa o espina, ser néctar o hiel.
Así voy a curvas con mi mala sed
Podando jardines de todo jaez.”

“You are old, Father William,' the young man said,
'And your hair has become very white;
And yet you incessantly stand on your head—
Do you think, at your age, it is right?'
'In my youth,' Father William replied to his son,
'I feared it might injure the brain;
But, now that I'm perfectly sure I have none,
Why, I do it again and again.”

“I was the great family embarrassment after all. Wren was hardly my first misstep. Father called them missteps but to me they were legitimate romances. Live and let love.”

“You deserve better. I'll give you something so, so much better. By all the beating hearts of the rebel poets, I do solemnly swear, my darling, you shall soon be free!”
