Hee ruind mee, and I am rebegott Of absence, darknes, death, things which are not. All others from all thinges drawe all thats good; Life, Soule, forme, spiritt, whence they beinge haue; I by loues Lymbecke am the Graue Of all, thats nothinge. Oft a flood Haue wee two wept and so Drownd the whole world, vs two; oft did wee growe To bee two Chaosses, when wee did showe Care to ought els; And often absenses Withdrew our Soules, and made vs Carcasses. But I am by her death (which word wrongs her) Of the first nothinge, the Elixer growne; Were I a man; that I were one I needes mvst knowe; I should preferr If I ware any beast Some ends, some meanes; yea plantes, yea stones detest And loue: All, all some properties invest If I an ordinarye nothinge were As shadowe, A light, and body mvst bee here. But I am none: Nor will my Sun renew Yow louers, for whose sake the lesser Sunne At this time to the, goate is runn To feach new lust, and giue it yow Enioy your Summer all Since shee enioyes her long nights festiuall, Let mee prepare towards her, and let mee call This hower, her Vigill, and her hue since this Both the yeeres, and the daies deepe Midnight is| |
