And now, my honey love,
Will we return unto thy father's house
And revel it as bravely as the best,
With silken coats and caps and golden rings,
With ruffs and cuffs and farthingales and things;
With scarfs and fans and double change of brav'ry,
With amber bracelets, beads, and all this knav'ry.

Though art's hid causes are not found,
All is not sweet, all is not sound.

To an impatient child that hath new robes
And may not wear them.

All button'd down before.
