.....You see what love is, begun with griefe, continued with sorrow, ended with death. A paine full of pleasure, a joye replenished with misery, a Heaven, a Hell, a Divell, and what not, that either hath in it solace or sorrowe?
..........— John Lyly (1553-1606), English writer. Euphues: The Anatomy of Wit (1579).
