FAir one, those radiant lustres that arise
From (those bright Tapers) they Celestial e••
••ave fired me▪ I burn in every part,
••hey gnaw (like Vulters) my relenting heart.
And then the numness of you frozen zeal
••arves all my bliss, and makes my ••••ope conge
••o that my heart lies in a restless Urn;
With Cauoasus I freeze, with A••tna burn.
wherefore that sorrows may not me e••lipse,
chace frost and fire with thy love and lips.
