018.AF1.001  By our first strange and fatal interview,
018.AF1.002  By all desires, which thereby did ensue,
018.AF1.003  By our long striving hopes, by that remorse
018.AF1.004  Which my words masculine perswasive force
018.AF1.005  Begot in Thee, and by the memory
018.AF1.006  Of hurts, which spies and rivals threatned me,
018.AF1.007  I calmly beg. but by thy fathers wrath,
018.AF1.008  By all pains, which want and divorcement hath.
018.AF1.009  I conjure thee, and all the oaths which I
018.AF1.010  And thou have sworn to seal joynt constancy,
018.AF1.011  I here unswear, and overswear them thus,
018.AF1.012  Thou shalt not love by means so dangerous.
018.AF1.013  Temper, o fair love, loves impetuous rage,
018.AF1.014  Be my true mistriss, not my faigned Page,
018.AF1.015  I'le goe, and, by thy kind leave, leave behind
018.AF1.016  Thee, only worthy to nurse in my mind
018.AF1.017  Thirst to come back; O, if thou die before,
018.AF1.018  My Soul from other lands to Thee shall soar,
018.AF1.019  Thy (else almighty) beauty cannot move
018.AF1.020  Rage from the Seas, nor thy love teach them love,
018.AF1.021  Nor tame wild Boreas harshness; Thou hast read
018.AF1.022  How roughly he in pieces shivered
018.AF1.023  The fair Orithea, whom he swore he lovd.
018.AF1.024  Fall ill or good, 'tis madness to have prov'd
018.AF1.025  Dangers unurg'd; feed on this flattery,
018.AF1.026  That absent Lovers one in th' other be.
018.AF1.027  Dissemble nothing, not a boy, nor change
018.AF1.028  Thy bodies habit, nor mind, be not strange
018.AF1.029  To thy self only. All will spy in thy face
018.AF1.030  A blushing womanly discovering grace.
018.AF1.031  Richly cloath'd Apes, are call'd Apes, and as soon
018.AF1.032  Eclips'd as bright, we call the Moon, the Moon. [p.(437)]
018.AF1.033  Men of France, changeable C*amelions,
018.AF1.034  Spittles of diseases, shops of fashions,
018.AF1.035  Lifes fuellers, and the rightest company
018.AF1.036  Of Players, which upon the worlds stage be,
018.AF1.037  Will too too quickly know thee, and alas,
018.AF1.038  Th'indifferent Italian, as we pass
018.AF1.039  His warm land, well content to think thee Page,
018.AF1.040  Will hunt thee with such lust, and hideous rage
018.AF1.041  As Lot's fair guests were vext. But none of these,
018.AF1.042  Nor spungy Hydroptick Dutch shall Thee displease,
018.AF1.043  If Thou stay here, o stay here, for thee
018.AF1.044  England is only a worthy Gallery,
018.AF1.045  To walk in expectation, till from thence
018.AF1.046  Our greatest King call thee to his presence.
018.AF1.047  When I am gon, dream me some happiness,
018.AF1.048  Nor let thy looks our long hid love confess,
018.AF1.049  Nor praise, nor dispraise me, nor bless, nor curse,
018.AF1.050  Openly loves force, nor in bed fright thy Nurse
018.AF1.051  With midnight startings, crying out, oh, oh,
018.AF1.052  Nurse, oh my love is slain, I saw him goe
018.AF1.053  O're the white Alps alone, I saw him, I
018.AF1.054  Assail'd, fight, taken, stabb'd, bleed, fall, and dy.
018.AF1.055  Augure me better chance, except dread Iove
018.AF1.056  Think it enough for me to have had thy love.

of a 1633 ed.; no ind.; in l.48 "long hid" is both connected and spaced like 
two words--I think he just didn't pick up his pen; punct at end of l.53 is a 
judgment call.%2
