In little, little space, unhappy thou,
With a sad soule beneath his feet shalt bow.
The beane-stalke by a slender wand doth clime,
Shooting his head up to the ayre in time.
The top it aimes at, having reacht unto't,
He bowes his wanton head downe to the root.
Lovers rash heat unto the utmost aimes,
And though thou grant it much, yet more it claimes.
Give all; 'tis not enough, unlesse thou grant
(Of what hee hath) He to his friend may vaunt.

If shee cannot otherwise avoide it.Vives.
