If Speech the noblest action of the wil,
Be turnd to Silence (Loues best speech) in me,
If wit be quickened, or made good, of ill
By that good will which I do beare to thee:
Then what auailes good Wit if it be mute
More then good Will, that want good words to show it:
Suters speed not, that cannot shew their sute:
So, sue I to Thee but thou wilt not know it.
Yet Dumb-men do, and may, wed lawfully;
But wed they do not without first they woo:
Then, let me (dumb through Loue, that speaks thereby)
Do as, by Lawes of Heaun and earth they do:
They woo, then Wiue, I woo, then let me Wed;
For Words in Deede, best fit the marriage bed.
