Thus were dissolv'd with hopeful Change ten days;
Well cleansed Parts few humours bred, did Raise
Less Vapours far, which seem like Fogs to shroud
Sometimes the Brain, and Reason's Skie o're-cloud.
With Body still doth Sympathize the Mind,
That's Organ harm'd the Soul does droop combin'd:
And long sad Thoughts Distemper breed, Disease;
His Sprung from thence, ask'd Two-fold Cure, release.
