L. OF MY LADY SEYTON.
M. M.
O happy star, at evning and at morne,Vhais bright aspect my maistres first out [fand!]
O happy credle! and O happy hand
Vhich rockit hir the hour that sho wes b[orne!]
114
First gaiv hir suck, in siluer suedling band!
O happy wombe consavit had beforne
So brave a beutie, honour of our land!
O happy bounds, vher dayly ȝit scho duells,
Vhich Inde and Egypts happynes excells!
O happy bed vharin sho sall be laid!
O happy babe in belly sho sall breid!
Bot happyer he that hes that hap indeid,
To mak both wyfe and mother of that [maid.]
