[XXXIIII. Sometime when hope relyu'd me]

Sometime when hope relyu'd me

Sometime when hope relyu'd me, I was cōntented to see my starre so sightly, that shines so cleare & brightly, to see my starre so sightly, that shines so cleare & brightly, that shines so cleare & brightly, O since shee first consented to leaue the world all earthly Ioy defying, to leaue the world all earthly ioy defying, all earthly ioy defying, in vaine lament I, since a vayle now hideth the rarest beautie that on earth abydeth, the rarest beauty that on earth abydeth, the rarest beautie that on earth abydeth, that on the earth abydeth.
