XI. The Widdow.

My dying Husband knew how much his death would grieue mee,
and therefore left me wealth to comfort and relieue mee,
Though I no more will haue, I must not loue disdaine.
Penelope her selfe did Sutors entertaine,
And yet, to draw on such, such as are of best esteeme,
nor younger then I am nor richer will I seeme.
