and fountains:
...
And now where'er he strays
Among the Galilean mountains,
Or more unwelcome ways,
He's follow'd by two faithful fountains ;
Two walking baths, two weeping motions,
Portable and compendious oceans.

Does the day-star rise ?
Still thy stars do fall, and fall ;
Does day close his eyes ?
Still the fountain weeps for all.
Let night or day do what they will,
Thou hast thy task, thou weepest still
