On his Quondum Mistress.
Grace, Vertue, Love, did take, enforce, constrain,Sight, Mind & Heart, with Wonder, Fancy, Charms,
First, Second, Third, did View, Possess, Contain,
Delight, Love, Joy, was then, embrac'd, in Armes,
Till Hope, Desire, Trust, fail'd, lost, betray'd,
Thought, Love, and Faith, is free, gone, and unsaid:
Yet Time, Repentance, Grief, shew, prove, declare,
Her Fault, Loss, Sorrow; past, too late, not heard,
My thought, eyes, heart, found out, saw, break the snare,
Wrong, Hate, Deceit, intended, kept, prepar'd,
But Hope, Joy, Freedome's, seen, possest, in part,
Thought, Love, Desire, is true, fixt, in the heart:
Not vertue, grace, heart, mind, love, joyes, delight,
Take, force, contain, possesse, view, charm the sight,
For Hope, desire, trust, thought, love, and faith,
Faile, losse, betray, free, gone, she all unsaith.
