Being ready, she went into the Garden Woods, where shee saw Antissia sadly walking, her eyes on the earth, her sighes breathing like a sweet gale claiming pitie from above, for the earth she said would yeeld her none, yet she besought that too, and at last passion procured alteration from mourning, she began to sing a Song, or rather part of one, which was thus.
Stay mine eyes, these floods of teares
Seeme but follies weakely growing,
Babes at nurse such wayling beares,
Frowardnesse such drops bestowing:
But Niobe must shew my fate,
But Niobe must shew my fate,
She wept and griev'd herselfe a state.
My sorrowes like her Babes appeare
Daily added by increasing;
She lost them, I loose my Deare,
She lost them, I loose my Deare,
Nor one spar'd from woes ne're ceasing:
She made a rock, heaven drops downe teares,
She made a rock, heaven drops downe teares,
Which pitie shewes, and on her weares.
Assuredly more there was of this Song, or else she had with her unframed and unfashioned thoughts, as unfashionably framed these lines.
