INDEX OF FIRST LINES
When that braue honour of the Latme name
When these sad sights were ouerpast and gnoe
When those renoumed noble Peres of Greece
Wherefore doth vaine antiquitie so vaunt
Whilst your Beanies are fatte, whilst Cofers stuffd with aboundaunce
Whilst your Ritches abound, your friends will play the Placeboes
Who euer gaue more honourable prize
Who list the Romane greatnes forth to figure
Who lists to see, what euer nature, arte
Who so wil seeke by right deserts t'attaine
Within this wood, out of a rocke did rise
Wrong'd, yet not daring to expresse my paine
Ye croell starres, and eke ye Gods vnkinde
Ye dayntye Nymphs, that in this blessed Brooke
Ye heauenly spintes, whose ashie cinders he
Ye learned sisters which have oftentimes
Ye pallid spirits, and ye ashie ghoasts
Ye sacred rumes, and ye tragick sights
Ye tradefull Merchants, that with weary toyle
Ye wastefull woodes beare witnesse of my woe .
