Declaring in his thoughts, his life, and that he writ, 15 Highest conceits, longest foresights, and deepest works of wit. He, onely like himselfe, was second unto none, Whose deth (though life) we rue, and wrong, and al in vain do mone; Their losse, not him, waile they, that fill the world with cries; Death slue not him, but he made death his ladder to the skies. 20 Now sinke of sorrow I, who live; the more the wrong; Who wishing death, whom deth denies, whose thred is al to long, Who tied to wretched life, who lookes for no reliefe, Must spend my ever dying daies in never ending griefe. 25 Harts ease and onely I like parables1 run on, meet in one; Yet for not wronging him, my thoughts, my sorrowes cell, Shall not run out, though leake they will, for liking him so well. Farewell to you, my hopes, my wonted waking dreames; Farewell, sometimes enioyed ioy, eclipsed are thy beames! 30 1 Parables, parallels. Farewell selfe pleasing thoughts, which quietnes brings foorth; And farewell friendships sacred league, uniting minds of woorth. And farewell mery hart, the gift of guiltlesse mindes, And all sports which, for lives restore, varietie assignes ; Let all that sweete is voyd1; in me no mirth may dwell; 35 Phillip, the cause of all this woe, my lives content, farewell! Now rime, the sonne of rage, which art no kin to skill, And endles griefe, which deads my life, yet knowes not how to kill, Go, seeke that haples tombe; which if ye hap to finde, Salute the stones that keep the lims that held so good APPENDIX.
