012.H04.001  Oh, let me >>%Vnot<< serue soe, as those men serue
012.H04.002  whom hono%5rs%6 smoakes, at once flatter, and sterue
012.H04.003  Poorely inrich't w%5th%6 great mens wordes, & lookes
012.H04.004  Nor soe write my name in thy loving bookes
012.H04.005  As those Idolatrous fflatterers, w%5ch%6 still,
012.H04.006  Their Princes stiles w%5th%6 many Realmes fullfill [CW:whence:]
012.H04.007  Whence they noe tribute ha%Aue, and where noe swaye [24v]
012.H04.008  Such services I offer, as shall paye
012.H04.009  Themselues, I hate de>%Va<d names; oh then let me
012.H04.010  ffavourite in ordinary, or noe ffauourite be,
012.H04.011  When my soule wa%As in myne owne bodie sheath'd
012.H04.012  not yet by oathes bethroath'd, nor kisses breath'd
012.H04.013  in to my Purgatory, ffaithlesse thee
012.H04.014  they->>thy< heart seem'd wa%Axe, and steele thy constancye,
012.H04.015  Soe carelesse fflowers strewd on the waters face,
012.H04.016  The curled, whirl=pooles suck smack, and imbrace
012.H04.017  yet drowne them; Soe the Tapers beamy eie
012.H04.018  Amorouslie twinckling beckens the giddie flie
012.H04.019  yet burnes his winges, and such the Diuell is
012.H04.020  Scarce visiting them whoe are intirely his
012.H04.021  When I behold a%A streame w%5ch%6 from the springe
012.H04.022  Doth w%5th%6 doubtfull melodious murmuringe
012.H04.023  Or in a%A speechles slumber calmely ride
012.H04.024  her wedded Channells bosome, and there chide
012.H04.025  And bend her browes, and swell, if anye bough
012.H04.026  Doe but stoope downe to kisse her vpmost browe
012.H04.027  yet, if her oft>%Yer%Zen< gnawing kisses winne
012.H04.028  The traiterous banck to gape, and let her in
012.H04.029  She rusheth violently, and doth divorce
012.H04.030  her from her natiue, and her longe kept course
012.H04.031  and roares, and braves it, and in %Yglor%Zgallant scorne
012.H04.032  In flattering Eddies, promising returne,
012.H04.033  she flowtes her Cha%Annell, who thenceforth is drye
012.H04.034  This say I; that is she, and this a%Am I
012.H04.035  yet let not thy deepe bitternes begett
012.H04.036  carelesse despaire in me, ffor that will whett
012.H04.037  my mynde to scorne; and (oh) loue dull'd w%5th%6 paine
012.H04.038  was ne're soe wise, nor so well arm'd, as disdayne [CW:Then#w%5th:%6]
012.H04.039  Then w%5th%6 newe eies I shall survey thee, and spie [25]
012.H04.040  Dea%Ath in thy cheekes, and da%Arknes in thy eye
012.H04.041  Though hope breede faith, and loue; thus taught I shall
012.H04.042  (As Nations doe from Rome) from thy loue fall;
012.H04.043  My hate shall out=growe thine, and vtterlye
012.H04.044  I will renounce thy dalliance; and when I
012.H04.045  Am the Recusant in that resolute sta%Ate
012.H04.046  What hurts it mee to be excommunicate
