LETTUCE. — Cold-hearted. 
As water fluid is, till it do grow 
Solid and fixed by cold, 
So in warm seasons love doth loosely flow j 
Erost only can it hold ; 
Your coldness and disdain 
Does the sweet course restrain. 
Cowley. 
Jltait!) 21. 
PINE. — Pity. 
Be piteous to him, as womanhood requireth, 
That for your love endureth pain’s smart, 
Whom so sore your pleasant look enfireth, 
That printed is your beautee on his heart, 
And wounded lieth, without knife or dart. 
There let your pity spread without restraint ; 
For lack of pity, let not your servant faint. 
Chaucer. 1370.
