THE DREAM (2), by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
First Line: By dream I saw, one of the three
Last Line: Then juha weep, for I must dy.
Subject(s): Dreams; Nightmares


By Dream I saw, one of the three
Sisters of Fate appeare to me.
Close to my Beds side she did stand
Shewing me there a fire brand;
She told me too, as that did spend,
So drew my life unto an end.
Three quarters were consum'd of it;
Onely remaind a little bit,
Which will be burnt up by and by,
Then Juha weep, for I must dy.
