Mediocritie in love rejected

Give me more love, or more disdaine; The Torrid, or the frozen Zone, Bring equall ease unto my paine; The temperate affords me none: Either extreame, of love, or hate, Is sweeter than a calme estate.

Give me a storme; if it be love, Like Danae in that golden showre I swimme in pleasure; if it prove Disdaine, that torrent will devoure My Vulture-hopes; and he's possest Of Heaven, that's but from Hell releast: Then crowne my joyes, or cure my paine; Give me more love, or more disdaine.
