A Letter of Anne Boleyn to Henry VIII
Summer, 1526
Sir,
It belongs only to the august mind of a great king, to whom Nature has given a heart full of generosity towards the sex, to repay by favors so extraordinary an artless and short conversation with a girl. Inexhaustible as is the treasury of your majesty’s bounties, I pray you to consider that it cannot be sufficient to your generosity; for, if you recompense so slight a...

Romeo and Juliet
by William Shakespeare
Act I, Scene V
Romeo: If I profane with unworthiest hand this holy shrine, the gentle sin is this. My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready stand to smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss.

Fifty Shades of Grey
by E.L. James
(Chapter 6; page 96)
Ana: “Does this mean you’re going to make love to me tonight, Christian?”
