It lies not in our power to love or hate, <br />For will in us is overruled by fate. <br />When two are stripped, long ere the course begin, <br />We wish that one should love, the other win; <br /> <br />And one especially do we affect <br />Of two gold ingots, like in each respect: <br />The reason no man knows; let it suffice <br />What we behold is censured by our eyes. <br />Where both deliberate, the love is slight: <br />Who ever loved, that loved not at first sight?<br /><br />Christopher Marlowe<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/who-ever-loved-that-loved-not-at-first-sight/
