<L>THe Damask Ro&s;e or Lilly fair,</L>
<L>the Cou&s;lip and the Pan&s;ie,</L>
<L>With my true Love cannot compare,</L>
<L>for beauty not for fancy:</L>
<L>The faire&s;t Dame &s;he doth excel</L>
<L>in all the World that may be:</L>
<L>Which makes me thus her prai&s;e tell,</L>
<L><HI>&s;o &s;weets the La&s;s that loves me,</HI></L>
<L>When fir&s;t I &s;aw her comely face,</L>
<L>I much admir'd her beauty,</L>
<L>And in my heart I did intend</L>
<L>to proffer her all duty;</L>
<L>Which willingly &s;he did accept,</L>
<L>&s;o kind and loving was &s;he:</L>
<L>Which makes me, &s;ing in each re&s;pect,</L>
<L><HI>So &s;weet's the La&s;s that loves me.</HI></L>
<L>Bright <HI>Cynthia</HI> in her riche&s;t Rabs,</L>
<L>my Love doth much re&s;emble.</L>
<L>Who&s;e beautious Beams &s;uch Rays afford</L>
<L>as makes my heart to tremble,</L>
<L>Her inward parts I much de&s;ire,</L>
<L>her outward are &s;o comely,</L>
<L>her Vertues all men does admire,</L>
<L><HI>So &s;weet's the La&s;s that loves me:</HI></L>
<L>Her face &s;o fair, her parts &s;o rare,</L>
<L>are pa&s;t imagination,</L>
<L>All men admire where &s;he abroad</L>
<L>does go for recreation,</L>
<L>But &s;he is cha&s;t as &s;he is fair,</L>
<L>which to her fancy moves me,</L>
<L>Her beauty is without compaire,</L>
<L><HI>So &s;weet's the La&s;s that loves me,</HI></L>
<L><HI>Diana</HI> and her Virgin Nymphs,</L>
<L>that haunts the Wooddy Valleys</L>
<L>Free from rea&s;ort of play and &s;port,</L>
<L>and with no Mankind dallies,</L>
<L>Are not &s;o cha&s;t, as is my love.</L>
<L>no creature can di&s;prove me,</L>
<L>But rather help to bear a part,</L>
<L><HI>And &s;wear &s;he's &s;weet that loves me.</HI></L>
