How blest the humble cotter's fate!
He woos his simple dearie;
The silly bogles, wealth, and state,
Can never make them eerie. [ Burns ]

I'll woo her as the lion woos his brides. [ John Home ]

He that woos a maid must come seldom in her sight,
But he that woos a widow, must woo her day and night. [ Proverb ]

Like the Grecian, woos the image he himself has wrought. [ Prior ]
