A short elegiack Verse written vp●on the vnfortunate Deaths of the thrice worthie Gentlemen the Sheffeilds drownd in Humber OH where am I I thought I earst had died I was so frozen vp and stupified With Artick darknesse and Condorian cold Which these late moneths lifes faculties did hold Imprisond in the center of my heart Sure slaine I was I felt so little smart At the chill newes of Humbers fatall deed My tongue to moue mine eyes forgat to bleed For water cannot expiate what water did When Vertues Children lie vnburied Shall I be then lesse sensible lesse kind Then Mecchaes Pilgrims which themselues doe blind And rather doe for custome sacrifice At marble shrines then pious loue their eies No I will weepe and weepe and weepe againe Till in my conduits humours none remaine To giue my Fountaines liquid supplement And when those pipes and hollow caues are spent Mine Aire in them condenst likewise shall be And transmigrate to moysture presently From whence I may deriue a fresh supplie Euen whilest I liue to weepe and weeping die For them whose worthes and fatall chance excell The powre of Time in both to paralell A Funerall Canzonet vpon the vntimely death of an Honourable Ladie vnder the name of Stella STreame teares and in your waterie language lee My passion speake the sorrowes of my mind Since words want weight and tongues in vaine are see To vtter woes that haue not bounds assign'd Since Stella's dead so noble faire and kind That no tongue truly can her losse expresse Then mine be mute speake eyes my heauinesse But Stella's dead and I in vaine doe striue To limit water or confine the aire My words will perish that I would repriue And griefe hath dried the springs whence teares repaire So hard to forme I find our passions are That what my Reason most incites me to I blindfold seeke but quite contrary goe For Winters Frosts or Summers Heate haue dried My teares and put this tempest in my tongue When reason rather of the two had tried Teares to haue tenderd then this Dirge to haue sung For Stella's death so Noble Faire and Young On my soules anuile such crosse passions breake That my tongue weepes whilest these mine eye● should speake TIme I euer must complaine Of thy craft and cruell cunning Seeming fixt here to remaine When thy feete are euer running And thy plumes Still resumes Courses new repose most shunning Like calme winds thou passest by vs Lin'd with feathers are thy feete Thy dowrie wings with silence flie vs Like the shadowes of the night Or the streame That no beame Of sharpest eye discernes to fleet Therefore Mortalls all deluded By thy graue and wrinckled face In their iudgements haue concluded That thy slow and snaile-like pace Still doth bend To no end But to an eternall race Budding Youths vaine blooming wit Thinks the Spring shall euer last And the gaudie flowres that sit On Flora's brow shall neuer tast● Winters scorne Nor forlorne Bend their heads with chilling blast Riper age expects to haue Haruests of his proper toyle Times to giue and to receiue Seedes and Fruits from fertile soyle But at length Doth his strength Youth and Beautie all recoyle Cold December hope rete●nes That the Spring each thing reuiuing Shall through-out his aged Veynes Powre fresh Youth past ioyes repriuing But thy Sithe Ends his strise And to Lethe sends him driuing To Earth EArth thou art a barren Field Of delight and true contenting All the pleasures thou do'st yeeld Giue but cause of sad lamenting Where Desires Are the fires Still our soules tormenting Riches Honour Dignitie Are the high way to misfortune Greatnesse is a lethargie That to death can soone transport one To be faire Causeth care Gifts cha●te thoughts importun● To be wittie quick of tongue Sorrow to themselues returneth To be Healthfull Young and Strong Feeds the flames where passion burneth Yet doe Men Couet them More then what adorneth To haue Friends and Louers kind That vs round enuiron Wife and Children tho we find These be robes that best attire one Yet their losse Is a crosse Melting hearts of Iron To be perfect here and wise Is to know our indiscretions And our goodnes chiefely lies In obseruing our transgressions For we dwell As in Hell Thrall to bad impressions Then alas why long we so With lou'd Sorrow still to languish I● there ought on earth but woe Aye renewing cares and anguish Where new feares Still appeares Darts at vs to brandish To Death THen D●ath why shouldst thou dreaded be And shund as some great miserie That cur'st ou● woes and strife Onely because we 're ill resolued And in darke errours clouds enuolued Thinke Death the end of life Which most vntrue Each place we view Giues testimonies rife The Flowers that we behold each yeare In checquered Meades their heads to reare New rising from their Tombe The Eglantines and Honie-Daisies And all those pritty smiling faces That still in age grow young Euen these doe crie That tho men die Yet life from death may come The towring Cedars tall and strong On Taurus and mount Libanon In time they all decay Yet from their old and wasted roo●es At length againe grow vp young Shootes That are as fresh and gay Then why should we Thus feare to die Whose death brings life for aye The seed that in the Earth we throw Doth putrifie before it grow Corrupting in his Vrne But at the Spring it flourisheth Whom Ph●ebus ●nly cherisheth With life at his returne Doth Times Sunne this Then sure it is Times Lord can more perf●rme To Time STay wrinckled Time and slack thy winged haste Which from our Zenith doth so fast decline In Westerne waues Lethe thy selfe to ●aste Stay and at length regard this plaint of mine Thy one daies course is many thousand yeares And I in vaine pursue thee all my time Whilest thy declining haste more swift appeare● And thine owne weight precipitates thee to My feeble leggs their burthen hardly beares Whilest I pursue to catch thy harrie brow But thou like fr●ward Age still writhest away And to my good endeauours wilt not bow Yet know I come not now to beg delay For any debt of mine or borrowed summe Nor to repriue my life for some short day Old Time it is for none of these I come But euen to vent my griefes that thou to me To pinching art so prodigall to some The Vsurer a hundred yeares can see To cram his chests with theft and poore mens spoile The Baude stored with all sorts of villanie And sinnes that Hell and blacknesse selfe would soile Liues till her bodie be an Hospitall Of strange Diseases mischiefes perfect foile The P. and the P. that are most Fed by the peoples sinnes and also feede Those mischiefes whereby many a man is lost Which be old Time thy worst disease indeed These doe not want to doe amisse wants none But Time to him that would doe well's denide Thou giu'st the greedie Worldling time to runne In quest of profit to the frozen Climes Then to the burning Line and thirsting Sunne To Ganges the Mollucaes Phillippines Tho more then men he Nature cozen will That heate and cold for bounds to him assignes Thou lend'st the Drunkard time his Cups to spill Th' art to the Sluggard too indulgent kind Thou giu'st the Murtherer time to kill The Thiefe and Lustfull man their prey to find But those that to imploy thee well are bent Too little or iust none haue they assign'd Ten yeares the guiltie Lawes haue from me puld My Wants and Cares as much Sicknes the rest My best houres but from Wants and Cares are culd Oh Time must he haue least that spends thee best Oh Time giue me a Time my selfe t'applie To Vertue and to Knowledge or to die FINIS Errata Page 30. line 13.
