The pennoned reeds, that, as the west-wind blew,

Not for the world's sake, for which now they pore
Upon
Ostiense
and Taddeo's page,
But for the real manna, soon he grew
Mighty in learning, and did set himself
To go about the vineyard, that soon turns
To wan and wither'd, if not tended well:
And from the see (whose bounty to the just
And needy is gone by, not through its fault,
But his who fills it basely, he besought,
No dispensation for commuted wrong,
Nor the first vacant fortune, nor the tenth),
That to God's paupers rightly appertain,
But, 'gainst an erring and degenerate world,
Licence to fight, in favour of that seed,
From which the twice twelve cions gird thee round.

But, as I turned, a fear I could not name

Though she bout life but little understood,
And had a master wild as wild can be,
And far unfit for such a child as she;

From him, whose promise was to every one,
But whose intention was to wive with none.
