Near the sea's hue, for thence her goddess came:

On it a scarf she wore of wondrous frame;

In midst whereof she wrought a virgin's face,

From whose each cheek a fiery blush did chase

Two crimson flames, that did two ways extend,40

Spreading the ample scarf to either end;

Which figur'd the division of her mind,

Whiles yet she rested bashfully inclin'd,

And stood not resolute to wed Leander;

This serv'd her white neck for a purple sphere,
