Flovvers of Epigrammes | ||
Of hym self, and his frende.
Like as the bough doeth bud and branche,knit to his bodie faste:
And pluckt awaie, doeth sone decaie,
drie, wither, dye and waste.
Euen so by thee I stande, or fall,
I liue or dye by thee:
For vnto thee I am the bough,
and thou the stocke to me.
