Some Men there be, which like my Method well,
And much commend the strangenesse of my Vaine:
Some say, I haue a passing pleasing Straine,
Some say, That im my Humor I excell;
Some, who not kindly rellish my Conceit,
They say (as Poets doe) I vse to faine,
And in bare words paint out my Passions paine;
Thus sundry Men their sundry Minds repeat:
I passe not, I, how Men affected bee,
Nor who commends, or discommends my Verse;
It pleaseth me, if I my Woes rehearse,
And in my Lines, if she my loue may see:
Onely my comfort still consists in this,
Writing her prayse, I cannot write amisse.
