Texte original Texte et typographie originale : LEt thoſe who are in fauor with their ſtars, Of publike honour and proud titles boſt, Whilſt I whome fortune of ſuch tryumph bars Vnlookt for ioy in that I honour moſt; Great Princes fauorites their fair leaues ſpread, But as the Marygold at the ſuns eye, And in them-ſelues their pride lies buried, For at a frowne they in their glory die. The painefull warrier famoſed for worth, After a thouſand victories once foild, Is from the booke of honour raſed quite, And all the reſt forgot for which he toild: Then happy I that loue and am beloued Where I may not remoue,nor be remoued.
