by Natures lawes rebel by way of reason Thou sweetest subiect wert borne in the Realme of Loue And yet against thy Prince thy force dost daily proue No vertue merits praise once toucht with blot of Treason 12 But valiant Rebels oft in fooles mouths purchase fame I now then staine thy white with blackest blot of shame Both Rebel to the Sonne and vagrant from the Mother For wearing Venus badge in euery part of thee Vnto Dianaes traine thou runnaway didst flie Who faileth one is false though trustie to another 13 VVhat is not this enough nay farre worse commeth here A Witch I say thou art though thou so faire appeare For I protest mine eyes neuer thy sight enioyeth But Im mee am chang'd I am aliue and dead My feete are turn'd to rootes my heart becommeth lead No witchcraft is so ill as which mans minde destroyeth 14 Yet Witches may repent thou art farre worse than they Alas that I am forst such euill of thee to say I say thou art a Diuel though cloathd in Angels shining For thy face tempts my soule to leaue the heauens for thee And thy words of refuse doo powre euen hell on mee Who tempts and tempted plagues are Diuels in true desining 15 You then vngrateful theefe you murthering Tyrant you You Rebel runnaway to Lord and Lady vntrue You witch you Diuel alas you still of me beloued You see what I can say mend yet your froward minde And such skill in my Muse you reconcil'd shall finde That by these cruell words your praises shalbe proued The sixth Sonnet O You that heare this voice O you that see this face Say whether of the choice Deserues the better place Feare not to iudge this bate For it is voide of hate 2 This side doth Beautie take For that doth Musicke speake Fit Orators to make The strongest iudgements weake The barre to plead the right Is onely true delight 3 Thus doth the voice and face The gentle Lawiers wage Like louing brothers case For Fathers heritage That each while each contends It selfe to other lends 4 For Beautie beautifies With heauenly view and grace The heauenly harmonies And in this faultles face The perfect beauties bee A perfect harmonie 5 Musicke more lustie swels In speeches noblie placed Beautie as farre excels In actions aptly graced A friend each partie drawes To countenance his cause 6 Loue more affected seemes To Beauties louely light And Wonder more esteemes Of Musicks wondrous might But both to both so bent As both in both are spent 7 Musicke doth witnes call The eare his truth to trie Beauty brings to the hall The iudgement of the eie Both in their obiects such As no exceptions tuch 8 The common Sense which might Be arbitrer of this To be forsooth vpright To both sides partiall is He laies on this chiefe praise Chiefe praise on that he laies 9 Then reason Princesse hie Whose throne is in the minde Which Musicke can in skie And hidden Beauties finde Say whether thou wilt crowne With limitlesse renowne The seuenth Sonnet WHose senses in so euill comfort their step dame Nature laies That rauishing delight in them most sweete tunes doth not raise Or if they doe delight therein yet are so cloid with wit As with sententious lips to set a little vaine on it O let them hear these sacred tunes learn in wonders scholes To be in things past boūds of wit fooles if they be not fooles VVho haue so leaden eyes as not to see sweete Beauties showe Or seeing haue so wooden wits as not that worth to knowe Or knowing haue so muddie mindes as not to be in loue Or louing haue so frothie hearts as easie thence to moue O let them see these heauenly beames and in faire letters reed A lesson fit both sight and skill Loue firme Loue to breed 3 Hear then but then with wonder hear see but admiring see No mortal gifts no earthly frutes now here discerned bee See doo you see this face a face nay image of the skyes Of which the two life-giuing lights are figured in her eyes Heare you this soule-inuading voyce count it but a voyce The verie essence of their tunes when Angels doo reoyce The eighth IN a groue most rich of shade Where birds wanton Musicke made Maie then young his pide weeds shewing New perfumes with flowrs fresh growing 2 Astrophel with Stella sweete Did for mutual comfort meete Both within themselues oppressed But either in each other blessed 3 Him great harmes had taught much care Her faire necke a foule yoke bare But hir sight his cares did banish In his sight hir yoke did vanish 4 Wept they had alas the while But now teares themselues did smile While their eyes by Loue directed Interchangeablie reflected 5 Sighd they had but now betwixt Sighs of woe were glad sighs mixt VVith armes crost yet testifying Restles rest and liuing dying 6 Their eares hungrie of each word VVhich the deare tongue would afford But their tongues restraind from walking Till their harts had ended talking 7 But when their tongues could not speak Loue it selfe did silence breake Loue did set his lips asunder Thus to speake in loue and wonder 8 Stella Souereigne of my ioy Faire Triumphres in annoy Stella Starre of heauenly fire Stella loadstarre of desire 9 Stella in whose shining eyes Are the lights of Cupids skyes VVhose beames where they are once darted Loue there with is straight imparted 10 Stella whose voyce when it speakes Senses all asunder breakes Stella whose voyce when it singeth Angels to acquaintance bringeth 11 Stella in whose bodie is Writ the caracters of blis VVhose sweete face all beautie passeth Saue the minde which it surpasseth 12 Graunt ô graunt but speach alas Failes me fearing on to passe Graunt to me what am I saying But no sinne there is in praying 13 Graunt ô Deare on knees I pray Knees on ground he then did stay That not I but since I proue you Time and place from me nere moue you 14 Neuer season was more fit Neuer roome more apt for it Smiling aire allowes my reason These birds sing now vse the season 15 This small winde which so sweete is See how it the leaues doth kis Each tree in his best attyring Sense of Loue to Loue inspiring 16 Loue makes earth the water drinke Loue to earth makes water sinke And if dumb things be so wittie Shall a heauenly Grace want pittie 17 There his hands in their speach faine Would haue made tongues language plaine But her hands his hands compelling Gaue repulse all grace expelling 18 Therewithall away she went Leauing him with passion rent VVith what she had done and spoken That therewith my song is broken The ninth Sonnet GOe my Flocke goe get you hence Seeke a better place of feeding VVhere you may haue some defence From the stormes in my breast bleeding And showers from mine eyes porceeding 2 Leaue a wretch in whom all woe Can abide to keepe no measure Merrie
