Elegia.

[In which you ask't my name (confesse]

In which you ask't my name (confesse
your selfe, if't be not so)
And whether I before, had e
uer beene in loue or no.


My name, quoth I, is Soothern, and
Madame, let that suffice:
That Soothern which will rayse the Eng-
lishe language to the Skies.
The wanton of the Muses, and
Whose well composed ryme,
Will liue in despite of the heuens,
And Triumph ouer tyme. &c.
