Like fyer, are made; thy body, mind, and Muse.
5Dost thou recover sicknes, or prevent?
Or is thy Mind travail'd with discontent?
Or art thou parted from the world and mee,
In a good skorn of the worlds vanitee?
Or is thy devout Muse retyr'd to sing
10Vpon her tender Elegiaque string?
Our Minds part not, joyne then thy Muse with myne,
For myne is barren thus devorc'd from thyne.
To Mr R. W. A23, W: first printed in Gosse's Life and Letters of John Donne, &c., 1899
