John Donne
Wee cannot bid the fruits
We cannot bid the fruits come in May, nor the leaves to stick on in December
There are of them that will give, that will do justice, that will pardon, but they have their own seasons for all these, and he that knows not them, shall starve before that gift come
Reward is the season of one man, and importunity of another;
Fear the season of one man, and favor of another; friendship the season of one man, and natural affection of another; and he that knows not their seasons, nor cannot stay them, must lose the fruits
