| All kings and all theyr fauourits [298] |
| All glory of honours beautyes witts |
| The Sunn it selfe wch. makes times as these* passe |
| Is elder by a yeare now then it was |
| When thou and I first one another saw |
| All other things to theyr destruction drawe |
| Onely our love hath no decay |
| This, No tomorrow hath, nor yesterday. |
| Running it never runns from vs away |
| But truely keepes the first, last, everlasting day |
|
| Two Graues must hide thine and my coarse |
| If one might, death were no diuorce. |
| Alas, as well as other princes, wee |
| (Who Prince enough in one another bee) |
| Must leaue at last in death these eyes and eares |
| Oft fedd with true oaths, and with sweete-salt teares |
| But soules where nothing dwells but loue |
| (All other thoughts beeing inmates) then shall proue |
| This or a loue encreased there aboue |
| When bodyes to theyr Graues, soules from theyr Graues remoue |
|
| And then wee shall bee throughly blest |
| But wee not more then all the rest |
| Heere vpon Earth w'are kings, and none but wee, |
| None ar* such kings nor of such subiects bee. |
| Who is so safe as wee, where none can doe |
| Treason to vs except one of vs two? |
| True and false feares let vs refrayne |
| Let vs loue nobly and liue, and add agayne |
| Yeares and yeares vnto yeares, till wee attayne |
| To write threescore. This is the second of our raigne
