First Line: If hap it must, that I must see thee lye
Last Line: With spice; that done, ile leave thee to thy rest
Subject(s): Rest


If hap it must, that I must see thee lye
Absyrtus-like all torne confusedly:
With solemne tears, and with much grief of heart,
Ile recollect thee (weeping) part by part;
And having washt thee, close thee in a chest
With spice; that done, Ile leave thee to thy rest
