HE APPEASES HER BY HUMILITY AND EXHORTS A FRIEND TO DO LIKEWISEB

-
When my sweet foe so haughty oft and highC
Moved my brief ire no more my sight can tholeD
One comfort is vouchsafed me lest I dieC
Through whose sole strength survives my harass'd soulD
Where'er her eyes all light which would denyC
To my sad life in scorn or anger rollD
Mine with such true humility replyC
Soon their meek glances all her rage controlD
Were it not so methinks I less could brookE
To gaze on hers than on Medusa's mienF
Which turn'd to marble all who met her lookE
My friend act thus with thine for closed I weenF
All other aid and nothing flight availsB
Against the wings on which our master sailsB
