To PANDORA.

EAch thing allace, presents and lets mee see▪ The rare Idea of my rarest Dame, Deepe sunke into my soule the verie same, Whose view doth still bewitch vnhappie mee, The shining Sunne, her hart transpersing eye. The morning red her braue and blushing shame, Night absence, and day presence doth proclame, foule wether frowns, & calme sweet smil's may bee My scalding sighs tempestious winds, and raine: But exhalations of my tragick teares, In frost allace, her cold disdaine appeares; In thaw, and fire, my melting heart agane: And thus each thing brings purpose to be pinde And to my thoughts cōmends the faire vnkind.
