[From thes hye hilles as when a spryng doth fall]

From thes hye hilles as when a spryng doth fall
It tryllyth downe with still and suttyll corse;
Off this and that it gaders ay and shall
Tyll it have just off flowd the streme and forse,
Then at the fote it ragith ouer all:
So faryth love when he hath tan a sorse;
His rayne is rage, resistans vaylyth none;
The first estew is remedy alone.
