His Letter.

To the Mistris of my Affection, at Her Chamber in the Strand, Mistrisse I. G.

Sweet-heart thou art my chiefe delight,
I dream'd I was with thee to night,
Since I have seen thee, time appears
To me as five and forty years:
I cannot eat, nor drink, nor sleepe,
But somtimes sighth, and somtimes weepe.

151

I'le freely take what e're thou giv'st,
The latter should excell:
I'm thine while thou in credit liv'st,
Poore, or diseased, farewell.
Till then thine, for pleasure. I. G.
