[Nature, that gave the bee so feet a grace]

Nature, that gave the bee so feet a grace
To fynd hony of so wondrous fashion
Hath taught the spider owte of the same place
To fetche poyson, by straynge alteration.
Tho this be straynge, it is a straynger cace
With oon kysse by secret operation
Boeth these at ons, in those your lippes to fynde,
In chaunge wherof, I leve my hert behinde.
