The Answer.

If earth doth never change, nor move, There's nought of earth sure in thy love; Sith heavenly bodies with each one, Concur in generation; And wanting gravity are light, Or in a borrowed lustre bright; If meteors and each falling starre, Of heavenly matter framed are, Earth hath thy Mistresse, but sure thine All heavenly is, though not divine.
