May be thou wilt relent thy marble minde,

And lend thine eares vnto my dolefull Dittie:

Oh pittie him, that pittie craues so sweetly;

Or else thou shalt be neuer named meekly.

If thou wilt loue me, thou shalt be my Boy,

My sweet Delight, the Comfort of my minde,

My Loue, my Doue, my Sollace, and my Ioy:

But if I can no grace nor mercie finde,

Ile goe to Caucasus to ease my smart,

And let a Vulture gnaw vpon my hart.
