But Petrarchs Laura; while our famous Thames

Doth murmur Sydneyes Stella to her streames

Yet hast thou Severne left, and she can bring

As many quires of Swans, as they to sing

Thy glorious love: Which living shall by thee

The onely Sov'raigne of those waters be.

Dead in loves firmament, no starre shall shine

So nobly faire, so purely chaste as thine.

To Vaine hope.
