Europa like a Bull, and on his backe

Her through the Sea did beare; so lively seene,

That it true Sea, and true Bull, ye would weene.

Shee seem’d still backe unto the land to looke,

And her play-fellowes ayde to call, and feare

The dashing of the waves, that up she tooke

Her daintie feet, and garments gathered neare:

But (Lord!) how she in everie member shooke,

When as the land she saw no more appeare,

But a wilde wildernes of waters deepe:
