To some (by thee made happy) poet's line;

I love thee not for voice or slender small:

But wilt thou know wherefore? fair sweet, for all.

Faith, wench, I cannot court thy sprightly eyes,

With the base-viol plac'd between my thighs;

I cannot lisp, nor to some fiddle sing,

Nor run upon a high-stretch'd minikin;

I cannot whine in puling elegies,

Entombing Cupid with sad obsequies;

I am not fashion'd for these amorous times,
