A Riddle.
[I sawe a hill vpon a day]
I sawe
a hill vpon a day,
Lift vp aboue the aire:
Which watered with blood alway
And tilled with great care,
Herbes it brought foorth
Of mickle woorth.
Lift vp aboue the aire:
Which watered with blood alway
And tilled with great care,
Herbes it brought foorth
Of mickle woorth.
Pulling a handfull from that ridge
And touching but the same,
Which leauing neere vnto a bridge,
Doth cause much sport and game,
(A thing scarce of beleefe)
Lamenting without greefe.
