Rather than be a mightie Monarch made?

Since he inioyes such perfect libertie,

As neuer can decay, nor neuer fade:

He seldome sits in dolefull Cypresse shade,

But liues in hope, in ioy, in peace, in blisse:

Ioying all ioy with this content of his.

But now good-fortune lands my little Boate

Vpon the shoare of his desired rest:

Now I must leaue (awhile) my rurall noate,

To thinke on him whom my soule loueth best;
