This Sunne will love so dearly
Her rest, that long, long we shall want her sight.
Wonders are wrought, for she which had no name,
To night puts on perfection, and a womans name.
SATYRES.
Satyre I.
Away thou changeling motley humorist,
Leave me, and in this standing woodden chest,
Consorted with these few bookes, let me lye
In prison, and here be coffin'd, when I die.
Here are Gods conduits; grave Divines, and here
Natures secretary, the Philsopher.
And wily Statesmen, which teach how to tie
The sinewes of a Cities mystique body;
Here gathering Chroniclers, and by them stand
Giddie fantastique Poëts of each land.
Shall I leave all this constant company,
And follow headlong wilde uncertaine thee?
First, sweare by thy best love, here, in earnest
(If thou which lov'st all, canst love any best)

[CW: Thou]
