So both at her, and each at other wondered.

But the faire Virgin was so meeke and mild, xv

That she to them vouchsafed to embace

Her goodly port, and to their senses vild,

Her gentle speach applide, that in short space

She grew familiare in that desert place.

During which time, the Chorle through her so kind

And curteise vse conceiu’d affection bace,

And cast to loue her in his brutish mind;

No loue, but brutish lust, that was so beastly tind.
