[10 Cvpid]

Cvpid my prettie boye leaue off thy crying

Cvpid my prettie boye leaue off thy crying, such rude denialls doe make children theeuish. What was it tell, that cruell honour chidden made daintie, to bee hidden are her faire brests maide, daintie to bee hidden doth shee, make thee make faults, to make thee beaten. Is beauties beauties pride, in Innocence betraying. Giue mee ablow and shee shall play the child, and shee shall play the child with loue or sorrow.
