Then outward salues, that may augment it more.

Aye me (sayd then Serena sighing sore)

What hope of helpe doth then for vs remaine,

If that no salues may vs to health restore?

But sith we need good counsell (sayd the swaine)

Aread good sire, some counsell, that may vs sustaine.

The best (sayd he) that I can you aduize, xiv

Is to auoide the occasion of the ill:

For when the cause, whence euill doth arize,

Remoued is, th’effect surceaseth still.
