This were to be new made when thou art ould,
And see thy blood warme when thou feel it it could,

L' Ooke in thy glaffé and tell the face thou veweft,
Now is the time that face should forme an other,
Whose freth repairs if now thou not renewed,
Thou doo'st beguile the world, vnbletse some mother.

What acceptable Audit can'st thou leaue?
Thy vnus'd beauty must be tomb'd with thee,
Which vfed liues th'executor to be.
