To CINTHIA

It sometime chanst, as Stories tell by chanse;
That Hercules and Hylas were alone,
And seuerally they went apart to panse:
But hee and hee, accompanied with none,
Till Hercules to Hylas made his mone,
That hee for drouth was like to giue the Ghost.
Thus Hylas to Ascanius Blood is gone,
To draw a drinke, and lowting life hath lost.
So when mine eyes had spurd a speedie post,
To set the floods of fauour to their friend,
My burning heart, which drouth of comfort crost,
They dround them selues, & nothing els obteind:
So Destanies my dolefull death concludes,
By double force of Furious flames and floudes.
Uror, et heu nostro manat ab igne liquor.
