Where is my myrth, my solace, and my play?

As vanity to nought all[1228] is wythered away:

O lady Bes long for mee may you call,

For I am departed vntill dome’s day:

But loue you that lord that is soueraine of all:

Where bee my castles and buildings royall?

But Windsore alone now haue I no moe,

And of Eton the prayers perpetuall,

Et ecce nunc in puluere dormio.
