To Mr R. W.

I F, as mine is, thy life a slumber be,

Seeme, when thou read'st these lines, to dreame of me,

Never did Morpheus nor his brother weare

Shapes soe like those Shapes, whom they would appeare,

5As this my letter is like me, for it

Hath my name, words, hand, feet, heart, minde and wit;
