The other two, slight ayre, and purging fire,
Are both with thee, where euer I abide, The first my thought, the other my desire, These present absent with swift motion slide. For when these quicker Elements are gone In tender Embassie of loue to thee, My life being made of foure, with two alone, Sinkes downe to death, opprest with melancholie. Vntill liues composition be recured, By those swift messengers return'd from thee, Who euen but now come back againe assured, Of their faire health, recounting it to me. This told, I ioy, but then no longer glad, I send them back againe and straight grow sad.
