[XXIII. Deare if you wish, my dying]
Deare if you wish, my dying, In vaine your wish redowndsDeare if you wish, my dying, In vaine your wish redownds, in vaine your prayer, for can hee die that breath's not vitall ayer? Then with those eyes that slew mee, new life infuseing, renew mee: So shall we both obtaine our wished pleasure, our wished pleasure, you my death ioying, and I my lifes sweet treasure.
