With that I sprange vp towarde the tent

Of noble Dame Pallas, wherof I spake;

Where I sawe come[1558] after, I wote, full lytell lake

Of a thousande poetes assembled togeder:

But Phebus was formest of all that cam theder;

Of laurell leuis a cronell on his hede,

With heris encrisped[1559] yalowe[1560] as the golde,

Lamentyng Daphnes, whome with the darte of lede 290

Cupyde hath stryken so that she ne wolde

Concente to Phebus to haue his herte in holde,
