Epig. XXIIII. Vnus.

One more then excellent, we know, did make
One woman excellent, whom we may take
To be the Margarite; and gaue that woman
The same which with the Margarite is common:
Beautie he gaue to her. The Margarite:
Excels all other things, for Christall bright:
He gaue the woman vertue to sustaine
That Beautie giuen. Such vertue doth remaine
In this faire pearle or Margarite, that none
'Mongst gems most precious of more worth is knowne.
For which 'gainst enuie, in all womens right,
We may present the precious, Margarite.
