What could the Gods doe more, but doe it more aright?

But loe the Gods, that mortall follies vew, xxxii

Did worthily reuenge this maydens pride;

And nought regarding her so goodly hew,

Did laugh at her, that many did deride,

Whilest she did weepe, of no man mercifide.

For on a day, when Cupid kept his court,

As he is wont at each Saint Valentide,

Vnto the which all louers doe resort,

That of their loues successe they there may make report;[510]
