Laura. The Toyes of a Traveller. Or. The Feast of Fancie - Part 1, 24
For to behold my Sunne, I from the Sunne
Did seeke my face to shadow with my hand,
To shield me from the heate that gan to come
In place, where gazing on her I did stand:
But I no sooner from that Sunne was free,
But that in that selfe instant and that time,
I of mine owne Sunne found myselfe to bee
Burnt with the heate (a most unluckie signe).
So, whilst a shade from sunne did me defend,
A Sunne more hot did hurt me in the end.
Did seeke my face to shadow with my hand,
To shield me from the heate that gan to come
In place, where gazing on her I did stand:
But I no sooner from that Sunne was free,
But that in that selfe instant and that time,
I of mine owne Sunne found myselfe to bee
Burnt with the heate (a most unluckie signe).
So, whilst a shade from sunne did me defend,
A Sunne more hot did hurt me in the end.
