019.00A.001  Here take my Picture, though I bid farewell;
019.00A.002  Thine, in my heart, where my soule dwels, shall dwell.
019.00A.003  'Tis like me now, but I dead, 'twill be more
019.00A.004  When wee are shadowes both, then 'twas before.
019.00A.005  When weather-beaten I come backe; my hand,
019.00A.006  Perhaps with rude oares torne, or Sun beams tann'd,
019.00A.007  My face and brest of hairecloth, and my head
019.00A.008  With cares rash sodaine stormes, being o'rspread,
019.00A.009  My body'a sack of bones, broken within,
019.00A.010  And powders blew staines scatter'd on my skinne;
019.00A.011  If rivall fooles taxe thee to'have lov'd a man, [CW: So]
019.00A.012  So foule, and course, as, Oh, I may seeme than, [p.52]
019.00A.013  This shall say what I was: and thou shalt say,
019.00A.014  Doe his hurts reach mee? doth my worth decay?
019.00A.015  Or doe they reach his judging minde, that hee
019.00A.016  Should now love lesse, what hee did love to see?
019.00A.017  That which in him was faire and delicate,
019.00A.018  Was but the milke, which in loves childish state
019.00A.019  Did nurse it: who now is growne strong enough
019.00A.020  To feed on that, which to disus'd tasts seemes tough.
