[XXVII. Like the rash and giddie giddie Flie]

Like the rash and giddie giddie Flie

Like the rash and giddie giddie Flie, fluttering abour her eyes I dye, fluttering about her eyes I dye, yet differs this, shee burnes away, she burnes away, only by night by night I night and day, shee burnes, only when she brings, she burns, bring neere vnto the flame her wings, but my Sunburnes euerie euerie where, euerie where at home. And neere shee knowes not that the fire consumes, consumes but I, foresee my death foresee foresee my death, foresee my death, and like, and like a desperat dye.
