[II. O merry world.]
O merry world when euery louer with his mateO merry world when euery louer with his mate, might walk from mead to mead & cheerfully relate, sowr pleasures & sweet griefs following a wanton state: Those dais knew no suspect, each one might freely prate, And dance, or sing, or play with his consociate, Then louers vsd like turtles to kisse, full louingly, O hunny dais, & customes of antiquitie: But the world now is full of so fond iealosie, That we term charity wanton iniquitie.
