Transformèd them, there lying on the field,

Into one flower that is both red and blue.

It first grows red, and then to blue doth fade;

Like Astrophel, which thereinto was made.

And in the midst thereof a star appears,

As fairly formed as any star in sky;

Resembling Stella in her freshest years,

Forth darting beams of beauty from her eyes:

And all the day it standeth full of dew,

Which is the tears that from her eyes did flow.
