"O Bell my wife, why dost thou flyte?
Now is now, and then was then:
Seek now all the world throughout,
Thou kens not clowns from gentlemen:
They are clad in black, green, yellow and blue,
So far above their own degree.
Once in my life I’ll take a view;
For I’ll have a new cloak about me."
-Anonymous, "The Old Cloak". 16th Century.
"He drew his dagger, that was sae sharp,
That was sae sharp and meet,
And drave it into the nut-browne bride,
That fell deid at his feit.
‘Now stay for me, dear Annet,’ he sed,
‘Now stay, my dear,’ he cry’d;
Then strake the dagger untill his heart,
And fell deid by her side."
-English traditional ballad, "Lord Thomas and Fair Annet",
circa 1650.
"Oh I won't get up, I won't get up,
I can't get up for my life
For you have two long beaten swords
And I have but a pocket knife.
Well it's true I have two beaten swords,
They cost me deep in the purse
But you will have the better of them
And I will have the worst."
-English traditional ballad, "Mattie Groves". Circa 1600.

"A Samurai was out walking when a large tiger began to chase him. The
samurai ran for his life, never seeing the cliff under his feet. As
he fell, he reached out and caught a vine that hung down. He looked
down and saw another tiger circling below; the first tiger waited
above. The vine began to give away. The samurai then saw a single
strawberry growing on the vine. He reached out and ate the strawberry.
How sweet it tasted!"
-Attributed to various Japanese buddhist monks.
