The Surrender.

My once dear Love! hapless that I no more

Must call thee so; the rich affection's store

That fed our hopes, lies now exhaust and spent,

Like sums of treasure unto bankrupts lent.

We, that did nothing study but the way

To love each other, with which thoughts the day

Rose with delight to us, and with them, set,

Must learn the hateful art, how to forget.

We, that did nothing wish that Heav'n could give,
