That maie auaile to his recouerie[°]."

Which saide, she tooke and rould it on hir thigh[°],

And when she look't on't, she would weepe and sighe;[°]

She dandled it, and dancet it up and doune[°],

Not ceasing till she rais'd it from his swoune[°].

And then he flue on hir as he[°] were wood,

And on hir breeche did hack and foyne[°] a-good;

He rub'd, and prickt, and pierst her[°] to the bones,

Digging as farre as eath[°] he might for stones;

Now high, now lowe, now stryking[°] shorte and thicke;
