from On the Great Frost (1634)
We dare provoke fate now: we know what is
That last cold, death, only by suffering this.
All fires are Vestal now, and we as they
Do in our chimneys keep a lasting day;
Boasting within doors this domestic sun,
Adorèd too with our religion.
We laugh at fire-briefs now, although they be
Commended to us by his Majesty;
And 'tis no treason, for we cannot guess
Why we should pay them for their happiness.
Each hand would be a Scaevola's: let Rome
Call that a pleasure henceforth, not a doom.
A fever is become a wish: we sit
And think fallen angels have one benefit . . .
– William Cartwright (published 1651)
