In comelie garments, like some virgin maid

Of Dian’s troope, shee trimlie was arraid,

Saue goddesse-like her globe-like head around

With verdant wreath of sacred bay was crownd;

From which downe either side her comelie face,

Her golden lockes did flow with goodlie grace,

And in her hand a lute diuinelie strung

She held, to which oft times she sweetlie sung;

With this she sat her downe vpon the ground,

And with her fingers made the strings to sound,
