To love,

It is to be all made of sighs and tears.

And Man, the hermit, sighed--till Woman smiled.

My soul has rest, sweet sigh! alone in thee.

_To Laura in Death_. PETRARCH.

Yet sighes, deare sighes, indeede true friends you are

That do not leave your left friend at the wurst,

But, as you with my breast I oft have nurst,

So, gratefull now, you waite upon my care.

_Sighes_. SIR PH. SIDNEY.

Sighs

Which perfect Joy, perplexed for utterance,

Stole from her sister Sorrow.
