As either might for wealth haue gotten bene,

Or could be fram’d by workmans rare deuice;

And all embost with Lyons and with Flourdelice.

All ouer her a cloth of state was spred, xxviii

Not of rich tissew, nor of cloth of gold,

Nor of ought else, that may be richest red,

But like a cloud, as likest may be told,

That her brode spreading wings did wyde vnfold;

Whose skirts were bordred with bright sunny beams,

Glistring like gold, amongst the plights enrold,
