To his Dream.

Speak lovely Dream, how could'st thou find
Phantesies to shew her mind,
Wast not enough to let us see
Her face alone, but must we be
Alwaies in a such a taking,
Quiet neither asleep nor waking.
It was but this very night
She appeared in my sight,
Morpheus having thither sent her,
I began to complement her,
But the cursed destinies
Looking on with jealous eyes,
Envious at our happy meeting,
Attropus cut off my sleeping,
Yet he had gi'n me the leasure
To describe the ioy, and pleasure.
Of this lovely-loving Dream,
Had not waking lost my Theam.
