When life can speak, it can not well withhold

T’ expresse its own impressions and hid life.

Or joy or grief that smoothered lie untold

Do vex the heart and wring with restlesse strife.

Then are my labours no true pains but ease

My souls unrest they gently do appease.

Besides, that is not fruitlesse that no gains

Brings to my self. I others profit deem

Mine own: and if at these my heavenly flames

Others receiven light, right well I ween
