why dost thou thus,
through windowes, and through curtaines call on us?
must to thy motions lovers seasons run?
sawcy pedantique wretch, goe chide
late schoole boyes, and sowre prentices,
goe tell court-huntsmen, that the king will ride,
call countrey ants to harvest offices;
love, all alike, no season knowes, nor clyme,
nor houres, dayes, moneths, which are the rags of time.
