“Stone walls do not a prison make,
Nor iron bars a cage;
Minds innocent and quiet take
That for an hermitage;
If I have freedom in my love
And in my soul am free,
Angels alone, that soar above,
Enjoy such liberty.”
Richard Lovelace, To Althea, from Prison

“I could not love thee, Dear, so much,
Loved I not Honour more.”
Richard Lovelace, The Lucasta Poems

“Stone walls do not a prison make,
Nor iron bars a cage.”
Richard Lovelace, To Althea, from Prison
