ElFatal ["By our first strange and fatall interuiewe,"]

Begott in thee, and by the memorie
Of hurts which spies, and riualls threatned mee,
I calmely begg; But by thy Parents wrath
By all paines which want and diuorcement hath:
I coniure thee: And all those oathes, which I
And thou haue sworne, to seale ioynt constancie
Heer I vnsware, and ever sweare them thus;
Thou shalt not loue by meanes soe dangerous.
Temper O faire loue Loues impetuous rage,
Bee my true Mistris still, not my faind Page,
Ile goe and by thy kynde leaue, leaue behinde
Thee only worthie to nvrse in my mynde.
Thirst to com̅e back. O if thou die before,
From other lands, my Soule towards thee shall sore,
Thy els allmightie beauty cannot moue,
Rage from the Seas, nor thy loue, teach them loue.
Nor tame wilde Boreas harshnes: Thou hast redd
How roughly hee in peices shiuered
Faire Orithia, whome hee swore hee loud
Fall ill or good, tis madness toe haue proud
Dangers vnurgd: feede on this Flatterie
That absent louers one in the other bee.
Dissemble nothinge, not a boy; nor change
Thy bodies habit, nor myndes, bee not strange
Too thy selfe only, all will spie in thy face
A blushinge Womanly discoveringe grace.
Richly clothd Apes are cald Apes; and as soone
Eclipsd as bright, wee call the Moone the Moone
Menn of France, changable Camelions
Spittles, of diseases, shops of fashions
