Epig. 6. Loving Mirabell.

Mirabell doth her Mate, so dearly love,
That if the least he from her sight do move,

She seemes as one distract, the good man once
Went out, and staid to try her for the nonce,
But when againe return'd, his dearest Wife
(whom he thought lov'd him better then her life)
Was with his friend in bed, and seeing him
She cries, oh husband, you are welcome in,
My deare affection unto you was such,
I thought I could not love your friend too much.
