To his Loued Sonne, Nat. Field, and his Wether-cocke Woman.

To many formes, as well as many waies,
Thy Actiue Muse, turnes like thy Acted woman:
In which, disprais'd inconstancie, turnes praise;
th'Addition being, and grace of Homers Sea-man,
In this life's rough Seas tost, yet still the same:
So turns thy wit, Inconstancy to stay,
And stay't Inconstancy: And as swift Fame
Growes as she goes, in Fame so thriue thy play,
And thus to standing, turne thy womans fall,
Wit turn'd to euerie thing, prooues stay in all.
George Chapman.
