[Art thou that shee then whome noe fayrer is?]

Art thou that shee then whome noe fayrer is?
Art thou that shee desier soe strives to kisse?
Say I am, how then?
Maids may not kisse
Such wanton humord men.
Art thou that shee the world commends for witt?
Art thou soe wise, and makst noe use of it?
Say I am, how then?
My witt doth teach me shun
Such foolish foolish men.
