- # SHAKES-PRARES
To base of thee to be remembered,
The worth of that, is that which it contains,
And that is this, and this with thee remains.

So are you to my thoughts as food to life,
Or as sweet season’d shewers are to the ground:
And for the peace of you I hold such strife,
As twixt a miser and his wealth is found.
Now proud as an inioyer, and anon
Doubting the filching age will steale his treasure,
Now counting best to be with you alone,

Some-time all ful with feasting on your fight,
And by and by cleane starued for a looke,
Possessing or pursuing no delight
Saw what is had, or must from you be tooke.
Thus do I pine and surfet day by day,
Or gluttoning on all, or all away,

That euery word doth almost fel my name,
Shewing their birth, and where they did proceed?
O know sweet loue I alwaies write of you,
And you and loue are still my argument:
So all my best is dressing old words new,
Spending againe what is already spent:
For as the Sun is daily new and old,
So is my loue still telling what is told,

Thy dyall how thy precious mynuits waste,
