No Louer sayth I loue, nor any other [306]
Can iudge a perfect lover
Hee thinkes that else none can nor will agree
That any loues but hee
I cannot say I lou'd, for who can say
Hee was killd yesterday?
Loue, with excesse of heate, more young then old,
Death, kills, with too much cold.
Wee dye but once, and who lov'd last did dye
Hee that sayth, twice, doth lye
ffor though hee seeme to moue and stirr a while
It doth the sence beguile
Such life is like the light that bideth yet
When the lifes light is sett
Or like the heate wch. fire in solide matter
Leaues behind 2 howers after
Once I lou'd, and dyd, and am now become
Mine Epitaph and Tombe
Heere dead men speake theyr last and so do I
Loue-slayne, Loe heere I lye

[CW: Now y'haue]
