Of Mris. Arden.
BEhold and listen, while the faireBreakes in sweete sounds the willing aire,And with her owne breath fans the fire,Which her bright eyes doe fixst inspire.What reason can that love controuleWhich more then one way courts the soule?
So when a flash of lightning fallsOn our aboads, the danger callsFor humane ayd, which hopes the flameTo conquer, though from heaven it came.But if the winde with that conspire,Men strive not, but deplore the fire.
