Know, lady, you have but your day : And time will come when you shall weare Such frost and snow upon your haire : And when, though long, it comes to passe, You question with your looking-glasse ; And in that sincere christall seek, But find no rose-bud in your cheek: Nor any bed to give the shew Where such a rare carnation grew. . HESPERIDES. 65 Ah I 'then too late, close ...in your chamber keeping, It will be told That you are old ; By those true teares y'are weeping. To Cedars.

LOVE, like a gypsie, lately came ; And did me much importune To see my hand ; that by the same He might fore-tell my fortune.
