The wife of bath by geoffrey chaucer poem
Hir coverchiefs ful fine weren of ground,
I dorste swere they weyeden ten pound,
That on a sonday weren upon hir heed.
Hir hosen weren of fyn scarlet reed,
Ful streite yteyed, and shoes ful moyste and newe.
Boold was hir face, and fair, and reed of hewe
She was a worthy womman al hir lyve :
Housbondes at chirche dore she hadde five,
Withouten oother compaignye in youthe;
But therof nedeth nat to speke as nouthe.
And thries hadde she been at Jerusalem ;
She hadde passed many a straunge strem :
At Rome she hadde been, and at Boloigne,
In Galice at Seint Jame, and at Coloigne,
She koude muchel of wandrynge by the weye.
Gat-tothed was she, smoothly for to seye.
(Geoffrey Chaucer)

Most interesting poem by Edmund Spenser
|
Most glorious
lord of lyfe! That, on this day,
Didst make
thy triumph over death and sin;
And ,
having harrowd hell, didst bring away
Captivity
thence
captive , us to
win :
This joyous
day, deare lord, with joy begin;
And grant
that we, for whom thou diddest dye,
Being with
the deare blood clene washt from sin,
May live
for ever in felicity!
And that
the love we weighing worthily,
May likewise
love thee for the same againe;
And for
thy sake, that all lyke deare didst buy,
With love
may one another entertayne !
So let
us love, deare love, like as we ought,
Love is
the lesson which the lord us taught.
(Edmund spenser)

The COOK Poem by Geoffrey Chaucer
|
These
guildmen had their own COOK with them for their journey, to boil their
chicken and marrow bone with seasoning powder, sweet root, and sharp spice.
In judging London Ale his taste was nice. He knew very well how to roast and
broil and fry, to mix a stew, and bake a good meat pie,or prepare fish or
chicken pudding with almond, rice and egg. It is a great pity that he had a
cancerous ulcer on his leg.
THE Poem Of Cook in middle english
A COOK they hadde with hem for the nones,
To boille the chiknes with the marybones,
And poudre-marchant tart, and galingale.
Wel koude he know a draughte of London
ale.
He koude rooste, and seethe, and boille,
and frye,
Maken mortreux, and wel bake a pye.
But great harm was it, as it thought me,
That on his shyne a mormal hadde he,
For blankmanger, that made he with the
beste.

Since I left you, mine eye is in ny mind poem by Shakespeare
Since I left you, mine eye is in my mind,
And that which governs me to go about
Doth part his function, and is partly blind,
Seems seeing, but effectually is out;
For it no form delivers to the heart
Of bird, of flower, or shape which it doth latch;
Of his quick objects hath the mind no part,
Nor his own vision holds what it doth catch;
For if it see the rud'st or gentlest sight,
The most sweet-favour or deformed'st creature,
The mountain or the sea, the day or night,
The crow or dove, it shapes them to your feature.
Incapable of more, replete with you,
My most true mind thus maketh mine untrue.
And that which governs me to go about
Doth part his function, and is partly blind,
Seems seeing, but effectually is out;
For it no form delivers to the heart
Of bird, of flower, or shape which it doth latch;
Of his quick objects hath the mind no part,
Nor his own vision holds what it doth catch;
For if it see the rud'st or gentlest sight,
The most sweet-favour or deformed'st creature,
The mountain or the sea, the day or night,
The crow or dove, it shapes them to your feature.
Incapable of more, replete with you,
My most true mind thus maketh mine untrue.

Poem by robert samber
A man of words and not of deeds
A man of words and not of deeds,
Is like a garden full of weeds.
And when the weeds begin to grow,
It,s like a garden full of snow.
And when the snow begins to fall,
It,s like the bird upon the wall.
And when the bird away does fly,
It,s like an eagle in the sky.
And when the sky begins to roar,
It,s like a lion at the door.
And when the door begins to crack,
It,s like a stick acroos your back.
And when your back begins to smart,
It,s like a penknife in your heart.
And when your heart begins to bleed,
You,r dead and dead and dead indeed.
(Charles Perrault 1628-1703)
