He her obeyed, and martyred my poor heart./ I, waking, hoped as dreams it
would depart;/ Yet since, O me, a lover I have been.

any Body whomsoever. But I must tell you, That their Liberty and Freedom,
consists in having of Government; those Laws, by which their Life and their

that is nothing pertaining to them.
(5)"Doth God exact day-laybor, light denied?"/ I fondly ask;but Patience to
prevent/ That murmur, soon replies...

And tear our pleasures with rough strife/ Thorough the iron gates of life:
Thus, though we cannot make our sun/ Stand still, yet we will make him run
