(That Monument of great Antiquitie)

When his poore hart (with griefe and sorrow cloyd)

Fled to his Wife (last hope in miserie;)

Pyrrhus (more hard than Adamantine rockes)

Held him and halde him by his aged lockes.

These two examples by the way I show,

To proue th'indecencie of mens long haire:

Though I could tell thee of a thousand moe,

Let these suffice for thee (my louely Faire)

Whose eye's my starre; whose smiling is my Sunne;
