All's Well That Ends Well is a play by William Shakespeare. It is often considered one of his problem plays, not easily classifiable as a comedy or tragedy. It was probably written in the later middle part of Shakespeare's career, between 1601 and 1608.

• Even so it was with me, when I was young:
  If we are nature’s, these are ours; this thorn
  Doth to our rose of youth rightly belong:
  Our blood to us, this to our blood is born;
  It is the show and seal of nature’s truth,
  Where love’s strong passion is impress’d in youth:
  By our remembrances of days foregone,
  Such were our faults; — or then we thought them none.
  Her eye is sick on’t: I observe her now.
