[XVIII. Bvt though poore sheepe]

Bvt though poore sheepe faire Phillis thus doe mourne,
Yet willingly helpe thou their weake estate.
For shee though carelesse, may againe returne,
And loue neglected, may conuert to hate,
When shee reioycing in her freedomes gaine,
That wanton boy dispised shall remaine.
