55So passion is to womans love, about,

Nay, farther off, than when we first set out.

It is not love that sueth, or doth contend;

Love either conquers, or but meets a friend.

Man's better part consists of purer fire,

60And findes it selfe allow'd, ere it desire.

Love is wise here, keepes home, gives reason sway,

And journeys not till it finde summer-way.

A weather-beaten Lover but once knowne,

Is sport for every girle to practise on.
