VVhen fortie Winters shall beseige thy brow,
And digge deep trenches in thy beauties field, Thy youthes proud liuery so gaz'd on now, Wil be a totter'd weed of smal worth held: Then being askt, where all thy beautie lies, Where all the treasure of thy lusty daies; To say within thine owne deepe sunken eyes, Were an all-eating shame, and thriftlesse praise. How much more praise deseru'd thy beauties vse, If thou couldst answere this faire child of mine Shall sum my count, and make my old excuse Proouing his beautie by succession thine.
