And Cytherea all in sedges hid

Which seem to move and wanton with her breath,

Even as the waving sedges play [with] wind.

Lord. We'll show thee Io as she was a maid

And how she was beguiled and surprised,

As lively painted as the deed was done.

Third Serv. Or Daphne roaming through a thorny wood,

Scratching her legs that one shall swear she bleeds,

And at that sight shall sad Apollo weep,
