The Argument.

Henry the Second keepeth (with much care)
Lord Clifford daughter, Rosamond the faire;
And whilst his Sonnes doe Normandie invade,
He forc'd to France, with wond'rous cost had made
A Labyrinth in Woodstock, where unseene
His Love might lodge safe, from his jealous Queene:
Yet when he stay'd beyond his time abroad,
Her pensive Brest, his Darling to unload,
In this Epistle doth her Griefe complaine;
And his Rescription tells her his againe.
