Laura. The Toyes of a Traveller. Or. The Feast of Fancie - Part 1, 19
Ladie, the Sunne was in Aquarius
When thou wert borne, which is the reason why
The water of my plaints delight thee thus,
Without once viewing me with piteous eye:
But when as I was borne, the Signe I gesse
In Cancer was, a show of my distresse.
This is the cause within my boyling brest
Doth burne a hot and unextinguisht fire:
But contrarie these Signes in us doo rest,
Nor doo they well accord to my desire;
Farre better had it been, Aquarius Signe
Had hapt to mee, and Cancer had been thine.
