A Lovers Protestation.
First shall the Heavens bright Lamp forget to shine,The Stars shall from the Azur'd Sky decline:
First shall the Orient with the West shake hand,
The Centre of the World shall cease to stand:
First Wolves shall ligue with Lambs, the Dolphins fly,
The Lawyer and Physitian Fees deny:
62
My Mistriss locks with mine shall first turn red:
First Heaven shall lie below, and Hell above,
Ere I inconstant to my Delia prove.
