    About this ebook

    In sooth I know not why I am so sad,
    It wearies me: you say it wearies you;
    But how I caught it, found it, or came by it,
    What stuffe 'tis made of, whereof it is borne,
    I am to learne: and such a Want-wit sadnesse makes of
    mee,
    That I have much ado to know myself
