On his departing.

1

VVhen I was forced to depart
From Amorea ever dear,
Think you how near
A sadness then did touch my heart.

2

An Adamantine Law hath fors't
Me to depart and leave my bliss,
Ah sure it is
A law shall alwayes be accurs't.

3

Yet go I must, and leave behind
My happyness unto my greif,
And no releif
Is left unto my troubled mind.

4

Thus should my Amorea know,
Alas she doth, but will not give
Any Reprive,
Unto my helpless overthrow.
