[XI. The curtaine drawne I saw my loue]
The curtaine drawn I saw my loue, I saw my
loue lie sleeping
The curtaine drawn I saw my loue, I saw my
loue lie sleeping, thrice happy was that peeping,
thrice happy was that peeping, for vewing her sweet lying
her sweet, her sweet lying, preserues my life and keeps my soule
from dying, and keeps my soule from dying, of thousand ioyes missing
her I had mist all, whose sight reuiues me more, reuiues me more,
whose whose sight reuiues me more, reuiues me more
then ruby, pearle, then ruby, pearle, or cristall.
