To a Freind upon Overburie's Wife Given to Hir
I know no fitter Subject for your view
Then this, a meditation ripe for You,
As You for it. Which when you read you'le see
What kind of Wife your self will one Day bee.
Which happy day be neere you, and may this
Remaine with you as earnest of my wish;
When you so farr love any, that you dare
Venter your whole affection on his care,
May he, for whome you change your Virgin life,
Prove good to you, and Perfect as this Wife.
