 | Ex otio Negotium |  |
De Phillede, Epig. 66.
When beauteous Phillis to me all the night,Had gave her self in all garbes of delight,
And in the morning I began to sound
What gift were best, of Cosmus sweets a pound,
121
Rich Spanish Wooll eight pound, or Cæsar's coyn
Ten yellow boyes: My neck embraced shee,
And with as long a kisse alluring mee
As marriages of Doves are making up,
Phillis desired nought else but a merry Cup.
