SONNET. XV.
[What meane our Merchants so with eger minds]
What meane our Merchants so with eger mindsTo plough the seas to finde rich iuels forth?
Sith in Emaricdulf a thousand kinds
Are heap'd, exceeding wealthie Indias worth:
Then India doth her haire affoord more gold,
And thousands siluer mines her forhead showes,
More Diamonds then th' Egyptian surges folde,
Within her eyes rich treasurie nature stowes:
Her hony breath, but more then hony sweete,
Exceeds the odours of Arabia:
Those pretious rankes continually that meete,
Are pearles more worth then all America.
Her other parts (proud Cupids countermate)
Exceed the world for worth, the heauens for state.
