Living
Tagus, fare well, that westward with thy stremis
From The Poems of Sir Thomas Wiat (ed. A. K. Foxwell, 1913)
Living
Tagus, fare well, that westward with thy stremis,
Toms up the grayns of gold alredy tryd :
With spurr and sayle for I go seke the Temis,
Gaynward the sonne that showth her welthi pryd :
And to the town which Brutus sowght by dremis.
Like bendyd mone doth lend her lusty syd ;
My Kyng my Contry alone for whome I lyve :
Of myghty love the winges for this me gyve,
