Vitaulium: Hofwyck en Spaansche Wijsheit by Constantijn Huygens
Elck die uw hooft bemickt, treft sijnen Doele niet;
Het is altijds geen lap wanneer de Schutter schiet,
Nochtans, wanneer der[1] prijs met schieten is te winnen,
Sijn s' altemael te been, die roer of boogh beminnen,
En hoopt oock d' alderminst 't geluck van eene schoot,
Door een beleefde pijl of door een gunstigh loodt.
So waegh ick mee een kans, en vlam op het Compeerschap
Meer als op 't beste glas van sulcken braeven Heerschap,
Die met een Fenix-pen, wanneer hy 't sich bepijnt,
De Son beschrijven kan veel schoonder als hy schijnt[2].
Maer weer soo waegh ick 't niet. Hoe raeck ick dat te vort[3] is?
Hoe reyck ick aen een spits, daer mijnen arm te kort is?
Hoe werd een rappen haes gevangen van een Koe?
Hoe vlieght een lamme gans tot aen den Hemel toe?
Wat maeckt een blinderick[4] in winckelen en hoecken,
Daer 't voor een Arentsoogh is duyster om te soecken?
Wat vind Tiresias[5] daer Argus[6] is van noo?
Noch waeg' ick 't evenwel: een vryer al te bloo
Besliep noyt schoone vrouw; die 't gunstigh uyr liet deurgaen
Als sy wel willen souw, moet naemaels voor de deur staen:
"Mijn vrind! ick ken u niet, goen avond en goe nacht,
Ghy hebt het luck versuymt dat u heeft toegelacht".
Dien de Fortuyn verschijnt, die grijpse by de vlechten;
Voor isser vatten aen, 't is naemaels niet te rechten
Soo ghyse glippen laet; want achter isse kael,
Daer heeftse tuyt[7] noch haer; dies, vryers altemael!
Past op het vinck-slagh wel, en laet geen tijd verlooren.
So een geluckigh uyr u heden werd gebooren,
So wacht tot morgen niet; wanneer het visje bijt,
So slaet den[8] hengelaer, of anders is hy 't quijt.
Soo waegh ick dan uw naem, die soo langh sonder naem staet,
Men oordeel of men dus het nut en 't soet te saem raedt:
Een halve kap, een lap van pluys of van fluweel
Bedeckt voor locht en kouw het teere Vrouwen-scheel[9]
Van 't voorhooft tot de kruyn, en wie kan sich beroemen,
Dat hy die kap, die lap, met sijnen naem kan noemen?
Nochtans krijght hy een naem waer aen hem yeder kent,
En echter yeder seyt: "Ick weet niet wat je bent".
Dit is u bey gemeyn; dies segh ick sonder wachten
(Men magh het nemen aen of vryelick verachten):
Die op het uytterlick alleen sijn oogen wend,
Vind tusschen u meer scheels[10] als tusschen Koe en End;
Maer soo men meer op reen als nae 't fatsoen en stof kijck,
Sijt ghy JE-NE-SCAY-QUOY van het Kasteel van HOFWIJCK.

Rena got into an entanglement with a big shot when she was drunk one night. She needed Waylen's help while he was drawn to her youthful beauty. As such, what was supposed to be a one-night stand progressed into something serious. All was well until Rena discovered that Waylen's heart belonged to another woman. When his first love returned, he stopped coming home, leaving Rena all alone for many nights. She put up with it until she received a check and farewell note one day. Contrary to how Waylen expected her to react, Rena had a smile on her face as she bid him farewell. "It was fun while it lasted, Waylen. May our paths never cross. Have a nice life." But as fate would have it, their paths crossed again. This time, Rena had another man by her side. Waylen's eyes burned with jealousy. He spat, "How the hell did you move on? I thought you loved only me!" "Keyword, loved!" Rena flipped her hair back and retorted, "There are plenty of fish in the sea, Waylen. Besides, you were the one who asked for a breakup. Now, if you want to date me, you have to wait in line." The next day, Rena received a credit alert of billions and a diamond ring. Waylen appeared again, got down on one knee, and uttered, "May I cut in line, Rena? I still want you."
"What... What are these?" Selene stammered with her voice barely more than a whisper. "Divorce papers?" She looked up at Maximus, searching his face for some sign of a joke, a mistake - anything to tell her this wasn't real. His eyes flickered with a brief moment of hesitation before hardening into a steely gaze."If Jess hadn't disappeared, we never would have gotten married" he drawled before delivering the final blow. "Well, Jess is back now." She couldn't breathe.Despite her best efforts over their three years of marriage, Maximus had never acknowledged her nor loved her the way he loved Jess. **** She signed the papers, and left his life for good, taking the babies growing in her womb with her. A few years later, She became a top medical doctor and did everything possible to stay away from Maximus. However, on her twins' fifth birthday, they came running to her, giggling: "Mummy, we found our billionaire daddy!" She looked up and saw Maximus standing in front of her, clearly expecting her to run into his arms. Instead, She chuckled. His eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets when she responded with a deadpan expression, "No, babies, your Father is dead."
Audrey Wilson must marry an old, ugly man because of her father's unpaid debts. She thought her boyfriend would be her savior, but on the same day, she discovers that he has betrayed her along with her best friend. So, desperate, she has to go to a bar to look for an opportunity, and luckily, she does find it... *** Audrey feel, a strange sensation was emanating from every part of her body. She tried to clench her legs, but was prevented from doing so. Lucien spread her legs and took his c*ck and aimed it at her v*ginal entrance. Smiling, he prompted her, "I'm coming in." With that he thrust hard. "Ah-" Audrey cried out, unlike the moan she had just given. It was a scream from pain, and she felt a ripping pain coming from her bottom. Lucien sensed something was wrong and looked down to check, he saw blood. What was going on here? She really was a virgin!
Madisyn was stunned to discover that she was not her parents' biological child. Due to the real daughter's scheming, she was kicked out and became a laughingstock. Thought to be born to peasants, Madisyn was shocked to find that her real father was the richest man in the city, and her brothers were renowned figures in their respective fields. They showered her with love, only to learn that Madisyn had a thriving business of her own. "Stop pestering me!" said her ex-boyfriend. "My heart only belongs to Jenna." "How dare you think that my woman has feelings for you?" claimed a mysterious bigwig.
Noelle was the long-lost daughter everyone had been searched for, yet the family brushed her off and fawned over her stand-in. Tired of scorn, she walked away and married a man whose influence could shake the country. Dance phenom, street-race champ, virtuoso composer, master restorer-each secret triumph hit the headlines, and her family's smug smiles cracked. Father charged back from abroad, mother wept for a hug, and five brothers knelt in the rain begging. Beneath the jeweled night sky, her husband pulled her close, his voice a velvet promise. "They're not worth it. Come on, let's just go home."
"GET THIS FAT, SHAPELESS COW OUT OF MY PRESENCE!" I claimed our Alpha as my mate, he insulted and rejected me in front of the whole pack, resisting the mate bond. "GET THIS FAT, SHAPELESS COW OUT OF MY PRESENCE!" He said, and even with his cruel words, my wolf whined and cried out to him. Getting sold later for a few pennies was the worst heartbreak I could ever wish for. But not until I got a second chance at love with the Howling Alphas. Being mated to 2 Alphas isn't a problem. But there are more and they're all fighting for my attention. With war looming amongst the werewolf clan and plentiful revelations from the Moon Goddess, I'm presented as the solution to the ultimate problem, but that would mean even more pain for me. Will my mates choose me over their pack and the entire werewolf clan, even though they have little or no choice in the matter? Yet, with the ongoing chaos, someone is still staking his claim on me. Who is this man?
