What potions haue I drunke of Syren teares
Distil'd from Lymbecks foule as hell within, Applying feares to hopes, and hopes to feares, Still loosing when I saw my selfe to win? What wretched errors hath my heart committed, Whilst it hath thought it selfe so blessed neuer? How haue mine eies out of their Spheares bene fitted In the distraction of this madding feuer? O benefit of ill, now I find true That better is, by euil still made better. And ruin'd loue when it is built anew Growes fairer then at first, more strong, far greater. So I returne rebukt to my content, And gaine by ills thrise more then I haue spent.
