[Ye braine-begotten dieties agree you]

Ye braine-begotten dieties agree you,
Nurst by transparant christall of chast eies,
Least she that gaue you life on sudden see you,
And frowning kil you both who causde you rise.
From hir you came yong Cupids from no other,
And but for her if enuious you shal wrastle,
I feare you both wil lose a louely mother,
Hir brow your bower, hir bosome is your castle.
There gree you both, there both togither go you,
And suck the Aprill ritches of hir brest,
Then I who long haue serued and loue to shew you
How much I loue the bosome where you rest.
Will come and kisse and blesse you little wantons,
And feed you kindly wantons if you want once.
