Other Sonnets vpon other Subiects, 7

THe Match is double made, where Man, and Wife,
Of diuese Bodies, make one perfect Minde;
Striuing to bee as farre from Hate as Strife:
In kindnesse constant of a diuerse kinde.
Hee, gladd of hir, Shee of his selfe, more gladd;
Sith as hir better halfe, shee Him doth hold!
Each giues, to each, yet haue more then they hadd!
For, loue, and wealth so growes more manifold!
Doubling one life, sith they of Two, make One,
Where Loues Desires rest pleased, in vnrest:
For true Ioy rests, vntir'd, in motion,
And by their motions that is still exprest:
He rules sith Shee obaies, or rather Shee
Obaying, rules: Thus, Soules may married bee!
