Now ſtand you on the top of happie houres, And many maiden gardens yet vnſet, With vertuous wiſh would beare your liuing flowers, Much liker then your painted counterfeit: So ſhould the lines of life that life repaire Which this (Times penſel or my pupill pen ) Neither in inward worth nor outward faire Can make you liue your ſelfe in eies of men,  To giue away your ſelfe,keeps your ſelfe ſtill,  And you muſt liue drawne by your owne ſweet ſkill,
