Excerpt from Elizabethan Sonnets, Vol. 2: Newly Arranged and Indexed
OU sacred sea-nymphs pleasantly disporting Amidst this wat'ry world, where now I sail If ever love, or lovers sad reporting, Had power sweet tears from your fair eyes hail And you, more gentle-hearted than the rest, Under the northern noon-stead sweetly streaming Lend those moist riches of your crystal crest, To quench the ¿ames from my heart's [etna streaming And thou, kind Triton, in thy trumpet relish The ruthful accents of my discontent, That midst this travel desolate and hellish, Some gentle wind that listens my lament May prattle in the north in Phillis' ears Where Phillis wants, Damon consumes in tears.
