And win opinion with the time,

To make them a high sayle of honour beare.

And may a powerfull smile

Cherish their flatteries of wit!

While I my life of fame beguile

And under my owne vine uncounted sit.

For I have seene the Pine

Famed for its travels ore the Sea:

Broken with stormes and age decline,

And in some creeke unpittied rot away.
