The Second Riddle.
Within a field there growes a flowre,
That decks the ground where as it growes,
It springs and falls, both in an howre,
And but at certaine times it showes:
It neuer dies, and seldome seene,
And tis a Nosegay for a Queene.
That decks the ground where as it growes,

And but at certaine times it showes:
