The morning before the Louer went to his Ladie, made this petition to the Gods.
Golde is a signe men sayof happy lucke and loue,
Then graunt ye Gods I pray
that rule the skie aboue,
This my request to me,
that sith that I this night
Did dreame such gold to see
as answerd my delight,
That I may heare such newes,
of her that hath my heart,
Like as ioy stil insues
to rid me from my smart.
And Venus Goddes milde,
to whom the apple gaue
Young Paris Prince a child
a noble dame to haue
Graunt that I may by suite,
haue her I doe request:
And I wil geue the fruite,
to thee before the rest.
