[Whilst I did shine fierce Boreas put me out]

Whilst I did shine fierce Boreas put me out,
Againe he kindles me at the second bout:
As sometimes did the clowne, now Boreas doth,
Both heat and cold he breatheth from his mouth,
The billow whom it cast into the maine,
Returning threw him in the Shippe againe;
Fortune throwes downe, then raiseth from the ground;
Achilles speare doth cure whom it did wound.
Losses prove good to some; whom Greece condemnd,
The Persian for his vallour could commend.
Be not cast downe, dispaire not at mischance,
God who hath crossed thee, will thee advance.
