014.B46.0HE  Elegie.
014.B46.001  Till I haue peace with thee, warr other men.
014.B46.002  And when I haue peace, can I leaue thee then?
014.B46.003  All other warrs are scrupulous, only thou
014.B46.004  (o faire free Cittie) mayst thy selfe allowe
014.B46.005  To any one:  in Flanders who can tell
014.B46.006  Whither the Master, Peers, or men rebell?
014.B46.007  Onlie we knowe, that which all Idiots Say
014.B46.008  They beare most blowes, that come to part the fray.
014.B46.009  France in hir Lunaticke giddines did hate,
014.B46.010  Euer our men, yea and our god of late.
014.B46.011  Yet she relies vpon our Angells well
014.B46.012  Which ne're returne, no more, then they which fell.
014.B46.013  Sicke Ireland; is with strange warr possest.
014.B46.014  Like to an Ague, now raginge, now at rest.
014.B46.015  Which time will cure; yet it must doe her good.
014.B46.016  If she were purg'd and hir head=veyne let blood.
014.B46.017  And Mydas=ioyes our Spanish Iourneys giue
014.B46.018  We touch all Golde, but finde no foode to liue
014.B46.019  And should I be in the hot parchinge Clime
014.B46.020  To Dust and Ashes turn'd before my time?
014.B46.021  To mew me in a ship, is to inthrall
014.B46.022  Me in a Prison, that were like to fall.
014.B46.023  Or in a Cloister, Saue that there men dwell.
014.B46.024  In a Calme Heauen, here, in a Swaggering Hell.
014.B46.025  Longe Voyages are longe consumptions
014.B46.026  And shipps are Carts for executions
014.B46.027  Yea they are Deaths; is't not all one to flie [CW:om]
014.B46.028  Into another World, as tis to die [30]
014.B46.029  Heere let me warr, in these armes let me lie
014.B46.030  Heere, let me parley, batter, bleede, and die.
014.B46.031  Thine Armes imprison me, and mine Armes thee
014.B46.032  Thy hart thy ransome is, take mine for me.
014.B46.033  Others doe warr that they theire rest may gaine
014.B46.034  But we will rest, that we may fight againe
014.B46.035  Those wars the Ignorant, these th'experienc't loue
014.B46.036  There we are allwayes vnder, here aboue.
014.B46.037  There, engines far of breede a Iust true feare
014.B46.038  Neere thrusts, Pikes, stabbs, yea bullets hurt not heere.
014.B46.039  There, lies are wrongs, here safe vprightlie lie
014.B46.040  There men kill men we'le make one by and by.
014.B46.041  Thou nothinge.  I not halfe so much shall doe
014.B46.042  In these warrs, as they may, which fro%M us two
014.B46.043  Shall Springe:  thousands wee see which trauell not
014.B46.044  To warr; but stay, Swords, Armes, and shott
014.B46.045  To make at home; And shall not I doe then
014.B46.046  More glorious Seruice stayinge to make men?
