And all attonce discouered her desire
2 With sighes, and sobs, and plaints, and piteous griefe,
The outward sparkes of her in burning fire;
4 Which spent in vaine, at last she told her briefe,

6 And do her comfort, she mote algates dye.
But the chaste damzell, that had neuer priefe
8 Of such malengine and fine forgerie,
Did easily beleeue her strong extremitie.
