WE that have done and thought,
That have thought and done,

That have thought and done,
Must ramble, and thin out
Like milk spilt on a stone.

Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,Enwrought with golden and silver light,

We sat together at one summer's end,That beautiful mild woman, your close friend,
