His painted nimble wings, and vanisht quite away.

The Palmer seeing his left empty place, ix

And his slow eyes beguiled of their sight,

Woxe sore affraid, and standing still a space,

Gaz’d after him, as fowle escapt by flight;

At last him turning to his charge behight,

With trembling hand his troubled pulse gan try;

Where finding life not yet dislodged quight,

He much reioyst, and courd it tenderly,

As chicken newly hatcht, from dreaded destiny.
