Love's Cristall River
Wee'r like two fountayne Cristall Riv'letts cleer,
With Serpent Windings runninge here and ther;
With sadder murmerings still as we goe
At the strict Jelous bankes, least overflow.
Spight of Earth's Carefull, watchfull, porous Eys,
Wee swell our Channells, higher wee doe Rise,
And in our lovinge Course we still advance,
Mauger our Mother Earth; thus gett a glance.
Findinge we can not Joyne as yett att all,
In pearled drops we downe againe do fall;
But plyeinge still as they their watry feet,
At last we Joyne; made one as they, so meete:
Love Traffick now a Navigable River;
Parted againe, till death, we shall be never.
