[In a groue of Trees of Mirtle]

[1]

In a groue of Trees of Mirtle,
Venus met faire Mirrahs childe,
Kisse quoth she my pretty, pretty Turtle,
But hee hopes hee did beguile,
With no no no, with no no no,
No no no no no no no
No, with no no no no no.

2

Come, oh come my dearest treasure,
And looke Babies in my eyes:
Coll, and kisse, inioy thy pleasure;
But her kindnesse he denyes,
With no &c.

3

Lowtish Lad come learne to venture,
On the Iuory brest of loue:
I dare stay thy worst encounter;
But her words as winde did proue,
With no &c.

4

Shall then loue be thus abused,
By the beauty of a Boy?
Shall my Temple be refused,
Will Adonis still be coy?
With no, &c.

5

Then I vow that beauty euer,
Shall neglected be of loue:
Let the foolish Boy perseuer.
He the folly now shall proue,
Of no no.
