If they bee two, they ar two so [246]
As stiffe Twinn-compasses are two
Thy Soule, the fixd foote, makes no showe
To moue, yet doth if th' other doe.
And though it in the center sitt
Yet, whilst the other far doth rome,
It leanes and harkens after it
And growes erect as that comes home.
Such wilt thou bee to mee, who must
(Like th' other foote) obliguely runn
Thy firmnesse makes my Circle iust
And makes mee end where I begun.
Valediction .2. of Teares
Let mee powre forth
My Teares before thy face whilst I stay heere
ffor thy face coynes them, and thy stamp they beare
And by this Mintage they are somthing worth
ffor thus they bee
Pregnant of thee
ffruits of much Greefe They bee, Emblems of more
When a teare falls, that thou fallst w.ch it bore
So thou and I, are nothing than when on a diuers shore

[CW: On a]
