Sonnet
Place mee where angry Titan burnes the more,
And thirstie Africke firie monsters brings,
Or where the new-borne phÅ?nix spreades her wings,
And troupes of wond'ring birds her flight adore;
Place mee by Gange, or Inde's empampred shore,
Where smyling heauens on earth cause double springs;
Place mee where Neptune's quire of syrens sings,
Or where, made hoarse through cold, hee leaues to roare;
Me place where Fortune doth her darlings crowne,
A wonder or a sparke in Enuie's eye,
Or late outragious fates vpon mee frowne,
And pittie wailing see disast'red mee,
Affection's print my minde so deepe doth proue,
I may forget my selfe, but not my loue.
