The louer complaineth that deadly sicknesse can not helpe his affeccion.
THe enmy of life, decayer of all kinde,
That with his cold withers away the grene:
This other night, me in my bed did finde:
And offerd me to ryd my feuer clene.
And I dyd graunt: so did dispaire me blinde.
He drew his bow••, with arrowes sharpe and kene:
And strake the place, wher loue had hit before:
And draue the first dart deper more and more.
