Who may better sing and daunce amongs vs Ladies all,

Than she that doth hir louer’s heart possesse in bondage thrall?

I haue assayed out to put

The fier thus begoone,

And haue attempted of to cut,

The threede which loue hath spoone:

And new alliance fayne would flee

Of him whom I loue best,

But that the Gods haue willed me

To yeld to his request.
