VENVS AND ADONIS.
Hardfauourd tyrant, ougly^mcagrejleanc,
I^atefuU diuorcc ofioue, (thus chides ihc death)
Grim-grinning ghod, earths-worme what doft thou
To ftifie bcautiejand to fteale his breath? (meanc?
Who when he Hu'd^his breath and beautie fct
GlolTc on the rofc/mell to the violet.
Ifhebedcadjonojit cannot be,
Seeing his beautie, thou (houldft ftrike at it,
Oh yes, it may, thou haft no eyes to fee,
But hatefiilly at randon docft thou hit,
Thy marke is feeble age, but thy falfe dart, •
Miftakes that aime, and cleaues an infants hart.
Hadll thou but bid beware , then he had fpoke,
And hearing him, thy power had loft his power,
The deftinies will curfe thee for this ftroke.
They bid thee crop a weed, thou pluckft a flower,
Loues golden arrow at him fliould haue fled,
And not deaths ebon dart to ftrike him dead.
Doftthou drink tears, that thou prouok'ftfuch wec-V Vhat
may
a
heauie grone
aduantage thee? (ping,
V Vhy haft thou caft into eternail ileeping,
Thof e eyes that taught all other eyes to ice ?
Now nature cares not for thy mortall vigour.
Since her beft worke isruin'dwiththy rigour.
