et our love! and, lastly,
As when the flame is suffer'd to look up 215
It keepes his luster, but being thus turn'd downe
(His naturall course of usefull light inverted)
His owne stuffe puts it out, so let our love!
Now turne from me, as here I turne from thee;
And may both points of heavens strait axeltree 220
Conjoyne in one, before thy selfe and me! _Exeunt severally._
