Brittle Beauty

Brittle beauty that nature made so frail,

Whereof the gift is small, and short the season,

Flowering today, tomorrow apt to fail,

Tickle

treasure, abhorred of reason,          [fragile]Dangerous to deal with, vain, of none avail,Costly in keeping, passed not worth two peason

,          [peas]

Slipper

in sliding as is an eel's tail,          [slippery]Jewel of jeopardy that peril doth assail,False and untrue, enticed oft to treason,Enemy to youth: that most may I bewail.Ah, bitter sweet: infecting as the poison,    Thou farest as fruit that with the frost is taken:    Today ready ripe, tomorrow all to-shaken

.          [broken]
