And minding to bestow that glorious Prize,

On Venus, that with pleasure might suffize

His greedie minde in loose lasciuiousnes:

Vpon a sudden, wanting goode aduice,

Holde heere (quoth he) this golden Ball possesse,

Which Paris giues to thee for meede of worthines,

Thus haue I shew'd the summe of all my sute,

And as a Plaintiffe heere appeale to thee,

And to the rest. Whose folly I impute

To filthie lust, and partialitie,
