Thus can my loue excuse the slow offence,
Of my dull bearer, when from thee I speed, From where thou art, why shoulld I hast me thence, Till I returne of posting is noe need. O what excuse will my poore beast then find, When swift extremity can seeme but slow, Then should I spurre though mounted on the wind, In winged speed no motion shall I know, Then can no horse with my desire keepe pace, Therefore desire (of perfects loue being made) Shall naigh noe dull flesh in his fiery race, But loue, for loue, thus shall excuse my iade, Since from thee going he went wilfull slow, Towards thee ile run, and giue him leaue to goe.
