Stones do weep, and trees do groane,

Birds in aire, fishes in flood,

Beasts in field forsake their food;

The Nymphs forgoing all their bow’rs

Teare their chaplets deckt with flow’rs;

Sol himselfe with misty vapor

Hides from earth his glorious taper,

And as mov’d to heare thee plaine

Shews his griefe in show’rs of raine.

LADY MARY WROTH
