AH wherefore with infection should he liue, And with his presence grace impietie, That sinne by him aduantage should atchiue, And lace it selfe with his societie? Why should false painting immitate his cheeke, And steale dead seeing of his liuing hew? Why should poore beautie indirectly seeke, Roses of shaddow, since his Rose is true?
