His complaint to the God Cupide, because he vvith his Darts perseth him alone.
O cupid
Uenus darlynge deare,
Whose powre no mortall might may bide,
If once in hande thy bow thou beare,
And flaminge forckers by thy side,
Why dost thou this lie still and sleape?
When I to thee doo wayle and weepe.
Whose powre no mortall might may bide,
If once in hande thy bow thou beare,
And flaminge forckers by thy side,
Why dost thou this lie still and sleape?
When I to thee doo wayle and weepe.
Wheare is become thy wonted powre?
Art thou vanquisht and put to flight?
Or els art thou disposde to lowre,
On me alone most wofull wight:
Say no, say no, Oh I thee pray,
And turne the harte breedes mine anoy.
