[lv] The Rose.
Flowre , which of Adons BloodSprang, when of that cleare Flood
Which Venus wept, an other white was borne,
The sweet Cynarean Youth thou right dost show:
But this sharpe-pointed Thorne,
Which doth (so prowde) about thy Crimsin grow,
What doth it represent?
Boares Tuskes (perhaps) his snowie Flancke which rent:
O Show of Showes! of vnesteemed Worth,
Which both what kill'd, and what was kill'd sett'st forth.
