122.NY3.001  If as myne is thy life a slumber bee
122.NY3.002  Seeme when thou readst these lines to dreame of mee:
122.NY3.003  Neuer did Morpheus nor his brethren weare
122.NY3.004  Shapes so like those shapes whom they would appeare
122.NY3.005  As this my letter is like mee, for it
122.NY3.006  Hath my name, words, hand, feete, hart, mind, & witt.
122.NY3.007  It is my deede of guift, of mee to thee,
122.NY3.008  It is my will, my selfe the legacee.
122.NY3.009  So thy retyrings I love, yea envy,
122.NY3.010  Bred in thee by a wise Melancholy
122.NY3.011  That I reioyce, y%5t%6 vnto wher thou art
122.NY3.012  Though I stay here, I can thus send my hart;
122.NY3.013  As kindly as any inamored Patient
122.NY3.014  His Picture to his absent love hath sent.
122.NY3.015  All news I thinke sooner reach thee then mee;
122.NY3.016  Hauens are heauens, & ships wing'd Angels bee
122.NY3.017  The w%5ch%6 both Gospell, & sterne threatnings bringe.
122.NY3.018  Guyanaes haruest is nipt in the Springe
122.NY3.019  I feare: And w%5th%6 vs (methinks) fate deales so
122.NY3.020  As w%5th%6 the Iewes Guide, God did: He did show
122.NY3.021  Him y%5e%6 riche land, but barr'd his entry in.
122.NY3.022  Ah slownes is o%5r%6 punishment & sin.
122.NY3.023  Perchance these Spanish busnesses beeing donne
122.NY3.024  W%5ch%6 as y%5e%6 Earth betweene y%5e%6 Moone & Sonne
122.NY3.025  Echps%>>Eclips< the light, w%5ch%6 Guyana would giue
122.NY3.026  O%5r%6 discontinued hopes we shall retriue.
122.NY3.027  But yf (as all th'All must) hopes smoke away
122.NY3.028  Is not allmighty Vertu an India?
122.NY3.029  If Men be Worlds, ther is in euery one
122.NY3.030  Somthing to'answer in some proportione
122.NY3.031  All the Worlds riches: & in good Men this
122.NY3.032  Vertu o%5r%6 formes forme, & o%5r%6 Soule[sic] Soule is.|
