Classic Poem

Invited to exceed Limits

Cupid although a Child's
Soe stronge
That neither Craft nor wile
Prison nor Chaine
May him detaine
Nor thong
Can hould him.

Whilst of restraint
I made Complaint
And of some Jealousies and scruples tould him
Hee bad mee not to feare but Come a long.

For why
Quoth hee
It Cannot bee
But those affections moves
To trace the sphere of turtle doves
Should bee most free
From all the Fetters and the tye
Of any other
Law, but what nature likes, to die
One for and with the other.
