    OF AN INGRATE.

    Cease thou of any to hope desirèd boon of well-willing,
    Or deem any shall prove pious and true to his dues.
    Waxes the world ingrate, no deed benevolent profits,
    Nay full oft it irks even offending the more:
    Such is my case whom none maltreats more grievously bitter,
    Than does the man that me held one and only to friend.
