HIS MISTRIS TO HIM AT HIS FARWELL, by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography

You may vow Ile not forgett
To pay the debt,
Which to thy Memorie stands as due
As faith can seale It you;
Take then tribute of my teares,
So long as I haue feares
To prompt mee, I shall euer
Languish and looke but thy returne see neuer.
Oh then to lessen my dispaire
Print thy lips into the ayre,
So by this
Meanes I may kisse thy kisse,
When as some kinde
Winde
Shall hither waft it, and in leiu
My lipps shall send a 1000 back to you.
