[Amyntas, ho! Didst thou espy, today]
Daphnis. Amyntas.D.
Amyntas, ho! Didst thou espy, today,
A mountain-Nymph pass nimbly by this way?
Her Garments handsom were, though nothing brave:
Her Cheek and Eye, such as thy Phyllis have.
A.
Daphnis, to Roëll house early she went,
To her brave Lord, some Token to present.
D.
Amyntas, Thanks: No better newes I'd hear:
I know, she'l find a noble welcom there.
Tounsend.
