That dainty Rose, the daughter of her Morne,
2 More deare then life she tendered, whose flowre
The girlond of her honour did adorne:
4 Ne suffred she the Middayes scorching powre,
Ne the sharp Northerne wind thereon to showre,
6 But lapped vp her silken leaues most chaire,
When so the froward skye began to lowre:
8 But soone as calmed was the Christall aire,
She did it faire dispred, and let +to+ florish faire.
