And it as oft was from about her wast disclos’d.

That all men wondred at the vncouth sight, xvii

And each one thought, as to their fancies came.

But she her selfe did thinke it doen for spight,

And touched was with secret wrath and shame

Therewith, as thing deuiz’d her to defame.

Then many other Ladies likewise tride,

About their tender loynes to knit the same;

But it would not on none of them abide,

But when they thought it fast, eftsoones it was vntide.
