Sonnet 30

THe Hyperborean Hills, Ceraunus Snow,
Or Arimaspus (cruell) first thee bred,
The Caspian Tigers with their milke thee fed.
And Faunes did humane bloud on thee bestow.
Fierce Orithyas lover in thy bed
Thee lull'd asleep, where he enrag'd doth blow,
Thou didst not drinke the Flouds which here do flow,
But teares, or those by ycie Tanais Head.
Sith thou disdaines my love, neglects my griefe,
Laughs at my groanes, and still affects my death:
Of thee, nor Heaven I'll seek no more reliefe,
Nor longer entertaine this loathsome breath;
But yeeld unto my Stars, that thou maiest prove,
What losse thou hadst in losing such a Love,
