Epig. 95. The forsaken Louer .

Even as Hell-fire doth Burne, but doth not Shine:
So thine not Shines, but sorely burnes my Heart:
But towards Thee, like Heau'nly fire is mine,
It Shines on Thee, not burnes thee, that's my smart:
Oh if thy Loue still burne and giue no Light,
My shining flame, it selfe will waste out quite.
