Sweet Gemma, when I first beheld thy beautie

Sweet Gemma, when I first beheld thy beautie, I vow'd thee seruice, honour, loue, and dutie, Oh then, blest then I saide, the best: is hither come, to make mee blest, but thou alas, sweet, thou dost not regard, my vow, goe let mee not see, Cruell though fayrest thee.
