J Hope (mine Owne) this fixed Loue of thine
Is so well staid and rooted déepe in brest
That not, vnlesse thou see it with thine eine
That I from thée my loue and Friendship wrest,
Thou wilt vntie the knot of thy behest.
I trust your selfe of Enuie will beware
That wild your friend take héede of Enuies snare.
