As a decrepit father takes delight,
To see his actiue childe do deeds of youth, So I, made lame by Fortunes dearest spight Take all my comfort of thy worth and truth. For whether beauty, birth, or wealth, or wit, Or any of these all, or all, or more Intitled in their parts, do crowned sit, I make my loue ingrafted to this store: So then I am not lame, poore, nor dispis'd, Whilst that this shadow doth such substance giue, That I in thy abundance am suffic'd, And by a part of all thy glory liue: Looke what is best, that best I wish in thee, This wish I haue, then ten times happy me.
