Five Centuries of verse:
 
Teach me to love?
Go teach thy self more wit
I am chief professor of it.
The God of love, if such a thing there be,
May learn to love from me.

                        By Abraham Cowley

“¿Enséñame a amar?
Más habilidad has de aprender.
Ese tema es mi arte.
Al dios del amor, si es que existe tal ser,
Yo le enseñé a amar”

                        Translated by Antonio Suárez
