So doubly lou’d of Ladies vnlike faire, xxxvii

Th’one seeming such, the other such indeede,

One day in doubt I cast for to compare,

Whether in beauties glorie did exceede;

A Rosy girlond was the victors meede:

Both seemde to win, and both seemde won to bee,

So hard the discord was to be agreede.

Frælissa was as faire, as faire mote bee,

And euer false Duessa seemde as faire as shee.
