 | The Works in Verse and Prose of Nicholas Breton |  |
A Riddle propounded by a Gentleman to a Gentilwoman whom he loued, but was a suter, but secretly.
The thing on earth you most desire,and yet of all you lest would chuse:
That often times you doo require,
and yet I know you will refuse:
And that here present you may see
All this is one: what may it be?
