To Mr P. J. on his Amorea.

How should I do my mind for to rehearse
I can write love enough but not in verse
Yet my dear friend do not refuse this mite
For I declare unto the world I write:
Not to win praise, for then I'me sure I shall
Have very little, for you have gotten all,
I am contented, it doth joy my heart
When as I go abroad, in every part;
For to hear this, and th' other Ladie say
Have you not Amorea read to day.
One takes occation for to praise this thing?
Another will take up her Lute and Sing.
One of thy Sonets; this will drop a tear,
For thy mifortune; some I've heard to swear
Thy Pastroll Poems best, some think it Dutie
To praise that Poem thou hast writ on Beautie
Should I give my opinion? truly I
Compare thy book unto a Lottery
Her'es Gold enough presented to our Eies;
Draw where we will, we cannot miss a prize.
