And proves by thumps upon your back
How he esteems your merit,

With proverbs thus each other entertain;
"In love there is no lack," thus I begin;
"Fair words make fools," replieth he again;

"Labour is light where love," quote I, "doth pay";

And having thus awhile each other thwarted
Fools as we met, so fools again we parted.
