A Y R E S
TO
SING AND PLAY


William Corkine

1610

 

VIII. Vaine is all this worlds contention.

                               
  Vaine is all this worlds contention,
  Fortunes fraile, and hopes deceiuing,
  Chance layes ambush of preuention,
  Our atempts of end bereuing,
  Future thing are plast 
  Beyond our weake conceiuing
  Minds in euery age new thoughts engender
  Till all to fate wee render.
