It fortuned (high God did so ordaine)
2 As she arriued on the roring shore,
In minde to leape into the mighty maine,
4 A little boate lay houing her before,
In which there slept a fisher old and pore,
6 The whiles his nets were drying on the sand:
Into the same she leapt, and with the ore
8 Did thrust the shallop from the floting strand:
So safetie found at sea, which she found not at land.
