Whoso List to Hunt by Thomas Wyatt
Whoso list to hunt, I know where is an hind, But as for me, alas, I may no more; The vain travail hath wearied me so sore, I am of them that furthest come behind. Yet may I by no means my wearied mind Draw from the deer, but as she fleeth afore Fainting I follow; I leave off therefore, Since in a net I seek to hold the wind. Who list her hunt, I put him out of doubt, As well as I, may spend his time in vain. And graven with diamonds in letters plain, There is written her fair neck round about, "Noli me tangere, for Caesar's I am, And wild for to hold, though I seem tame."
[edit] Sewer Extraordinary
So what is a 'Sewer Extraordinary'? Njál 16:16, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
I think it was the role of a young boy who served the table of the king during meals. Synaptics Pointing Device 17:51, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Poetry section
I think this page could be improved by having a second section all about his poetry, i.e. its influence on english metre, the translations of petrarch, the psalm translations. Any thoughts? Synaptics Pointing Device 21:26, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
