[What is not Love? tis All, Vertue and Vice]
What is not Love? tis All, Vertue and Vice,
Humble, proud, witty, foolish, kinde and nice;
A golden bubble, blowne big with idle Dreames,
That waking breakes, and fils vs with Extreames.

Love backeward speld (put I for O) is Evil
Adde D before the same, and tis the Devil.
A Devil 'tis, and mischiefe such doth worke,
As neuer yet did Pagan, Iew, nor Turke.
