“The lily I condemned for thy hand, And buds of marjoram had stol'n thy hair: The roses fearfully on thorns did stand, One blushing shame, another white despair; A third, nor red nor white, had stol'n of both And to his robbery had annex'd thy breath; But, for his theft, in pride of all his growth A vengeful canker eat him up to death. More flowers I noted, yet I none could see But sweet or colour it had stol'n from thee.” HandsGrowthWhiteSweetFlowerHairPrideDespairRedThirdsBreathsShameRoseTheeColourTheftThornsBudLiliesRobberyBlushingVengeful Book:The Plays of Shakespeare with the Poems Source: The Plays of Shakespeare with the Poems

“Payton grinned. “You must be Chase.” As she extended her hand in introduction, she took the opportunity to give him a more thorough once-over. He had dark wavy hair and warm brown eyes. Very Pat-rick Dempsey/McDreamy-esque. Good build, not terribly tall, maybe only five-ten-ish, but since Payton measured in at exactly five-three and one-third inch, she could work with this” GivingHandsEyeThreeOpportunityDarkFiveHairTenThirdsWarmBrownTallInchesIntroductionThoroughBrown EyesMcdreamy Book:Practice Makes Perfect Source: Practice Makes Perfect
