My litle boat can safely passe this perilous bourne.

Whiles thus she talked, and whiles thus she toyd, xi

They were farre past the passage, which he spake,

And come vnto an Island, waste and voyd,

That floted in the midst of that great lake,

There her small Gondelay her port did make,

And that gay paire issuing on the shore

Disburdned her. Their way they forward take

Into the land, that lay them faire before,

Whose pleasaunce she him shew’d, and plentifull great store.
