[CHAPTER XI.]

O what an easie thing is to descry

The gentle blood, however it be wrapt

In sade misfortunes foule deformity

And wretched sorrowes which have often hapt!

For,--howsoever it may grow mis-shapt

Like this wyld man being undisciplyned

That to all virtue it may seeme unapt,--

Yet it will show some sparkles of gentle mynd

And at the last breake forth in his owne proper kynd.
