[XXII. Flora faire Nimph whilst silly Lambs are feeding]

Flora faire Nimph whilst silly Lambs are feeding, Graunt my request in speeding, graunt my request in speeding, For your sweet loue my silly hart doth languish, And dye I shall except you quench the anguish For your sweet loue my silly hart doth languish, And dye I shall except you quench the Anguish.
