Epig. XXVI. Vni.

To one alone one woman thus was giuen,
That man might take it, as a gift from heauen:
And keep it euer with such care and loue,
That from it nothing should his heart remoue.
The precious Margarite all men doe couet,
And hauing gain'd it, doe so dearely loue it,
No Coffer, Cabinet, can be so strong,
As they doe thinke to keepe it safe from wrong,
With men therefore let women haue this right,
That euery one may be a Margarite.
