Whereof I had so inly great pleasure,

That as me thought I surely rauished was

Into Paradice, where my desire

Was for to be, and no ferther passe

As for that day, and on the sote grasse,

I sat me downe, for as for mine entent,

The birds song was more conuenient,

And more pleasaunt to me by manifold,

Than meat or drinke, or any other thing,

Thereto the herber was so fresh and cold,
