Sonnet.

Were thy heart soft as thou art fair,

Thou wer't a wonder past compare:

But frozen Love and fierce disdain

By their extremes thy graces stain.

Cold coyness quenches the still fires

Which glow in lovers' warm desires;

And scorn, like the quick lightning's blaze,

Darts death against affections gaze.

O Heavens, what prodigy is this
