But somwhat sad, and solemne eke in sight,

As if some pensiue thought constraind her gentle spright.

In a long purple pall, whose skirt with gold[743] xxxvii

Was fretted all about, she was arayd;

And in her hand a Poplar braunch did hold:

To whom the Prince in curteous manner said;

Gentle Madame, why beene ye thus dismaid,

And your faire beautie do with sadnesse spill?

Liues any, that you hath thus ill apaid?

Or doen you loue,[744] or doen you lacke your will?
