The
prime
of
bewtie
may
I
presume
to
tel
you
my
lot
?
Amaryllis
.
yes
Corydon
,
so
that
your
folly
therin
seeme
to
bee
no
greater
then
your
fortune
is
,
that
being
by
generation
a
Shepherd
,
you
clyme
not
by
vsurpation
from
Italy
,
to
be
God
Pan
in
Arcadie
.
C.
I
am
not
Pan
,
for
I
haue
not
armes
to
shew
:
or
if
I
haue
,
they
are
not
faire
and
glittering
like
the
sunne
beames
visible
like
the
same
which
women
giue
.
A.
Well
Corydon
,
tel
mee
your
lot
,
&
I
will
be
preiudicial
vnto
you
,
that
you
shal
haue
the
shortest
cut
for
your
labour
.
C.
There
is
a
custome
amongest
vs
Swaynes
in
Crotona
to
elect
bie
our
Diuinatione
Lordes
&
Ladies
,
with
the
leafe
of
the
flower
Telephilon
,
which
being
laide
before
the
fier
leapeth
vnto
them
whom
it
loueth
&
skippeth
from
them
whom
it
hateth
.
Tityrus
and
I
in
experience
of
our
lot
whose
happe
it
should
be
to
inioye
your
loue
,
insteede
of
Telephilon
we
burned
Mistletoe
and
Boxe
for
our
Diuination
,
&
vnto
me
Amaryllis
you
fled
,
&
chose
rather
to
turne
to
an
vnworthy
Shepherd
,
then
to
burne
like
an
vnworthy
louer
.
A.
Sorie
I
am
Corydon
that
the
loue
of
fooles
is
apt
to
take
hold
,
where
there
is
no
handle
,
and
many
times
so
quicke
of
conceipt
is
loue
,
that
in
steede
of
her
own
mate
,
she
conceiues
with
childe
in
the
darke
with
a
Niger
,
though
she
neuer
sawe
the
man
.
But
because
such
euents
are
incident
to
the
citizens
of
Crotona
,
when
they
are
farre
from
it
:
I
therefore
do
banish
from
my
discretion
all
fonde
loue
,
when
I
am
neerest
vnto
it
.
C.
ô
honorable
Amaryllis
it
is
not
my
induction
to
perswade
you
to
vouchsafe
to
fauor
base
mortalitie
as
your
equall
,
but
to
protect
simple
mankind
as
your
seruant
.
For
I
knowe
beeing
a
blasing
starre
as
you
are
,
and
walking
no
where
but
in
the
milkie
way
,
you
doe
destinate
as
comets
doe
,
the
verie
death
of
a
prince
for
loue
of
you
,
rather
then
anie
body
shal
inioy
it
.
A.
No
;
you
do
exceed
in
your
accounts
,
for
I
can
loue
much
because
it
is
laudable
,
but
not
loue
many
,
because
it
is
not
allowable
.
Not
as
of
a
good
thing
,
the
possession
is
his
that
hath
it
,
but
the
communication
of
it
doth
belong
to
all
men
;
but
as
of
a
bad
thing
,
such
as
loue
,
which
is
a
lewd
toye
,
the
possession
beeinge
in
a
woman
which
cannot
surrender
,
the
communication
must
be
but
to
one
man
,
lest
the
inheritor
should
proue
base
,
where
the
Landladie
hath
too
many
tenants
.
And
so
my
discretion
,
bee
farre
wide
of
that
you
wishe
it
to
be
.
C.
Yet
in
the
grauest
modestie
there
may
be
a
smile
,
and
on
that
is
dead
with
sound
may
chaunce
to
scral
,
&
once
a
yeer
the
driest
Burr
Oke
will
weepe
vnto
you
,
if
you
offer
but
to
write
the
first
letter
of
your
name
vpon
her
statelie
brest
.
Why
may
not
then
Amaryllis
once
a
yeer
vse
the
like
womanish
teares
,
to
any
that
shall
prefer
their
mindes
to
her
statelie
consideration
?
A.
Not
so
;
for
faithful
loue
is
good
in
it selfe
,
and
not
respectiue
good
:
for
in
it selfe
,
it
doth
consider
a
sympathie
,
which
euer
is
betwixt
two
,
and
no
more
,
according
to
a
ground
among
the
sages
:
True-loue
neuer
buildeth
her
own
nest
,
but
succeedeth
the
Turtle
Doue
in
hers
:
and
they
are
saide
aboue
all
other
birdes
to
haue
teats
and
pappes
,
to
nourish
loues
darlings
in
their
nest
:
wherein
shee
neuer
,
bringeth
but
two
vnto
light
,
and
they
are
both
copercioners
of
ech
others
vitall
spirites
,
and
not
vnlike
twins
,
vnto
which
one
more
admitted
maketh
lyke
a
monster
,
from
which
one
taken
away
,
causeth
present
death
.
As
they
say
Pythagoras
writ
for
his
firme
to
al
his
epistles
:
two
in
body
,
one
in
minde
.
C.
I
hold
it
felicity
for
me
to
be
borne
onlie
to
heare
you
speak
,
but
more
happie
it
were
for
me
to
die
quickly
if
this
be
true
,
for
then
I
see
by
the
perspectiue
glasse
of
your
angelical
beauty
,
how
it
is
written
in
my
forheade
,
that
my
heart
dooth
bleed
for
loue
:
yet
if
neither
of
vs
stand
in
election
,
and
because
the
gawdie
day
is
come
,
&
the
fellowship
is
granted
to
some
noble
personage
that
can
shewe
best
friendes
for
it
:
then
giue
Corydon
leaue
to
sacrifice
for
his
losse
the
simplest
guift
that
may
be
,
a
handfull
of
lines
,
in
ease
of
a
world
of
sorrows
.
A.
You
may
do
wel
to
writ
,
that
with
your
wit
you
may
write
a
way
your
care
:
no
doubte
but
hauing
Mars
lefte
you
,
if
Neptune
fauour
you
as
he
did
Pelops
,
you
may
winne
king
Aenomaus
daughter
in
warlike
race
:
so
comming
home
,
if
your
hungrie
father
Tantalus
be
aliue
he
may
bake
you
in
a
pie
,
and
bidde
the
gods
to
the
banket
for
ioy
of
your
departure
out
of
this
miserable
worlde
:
but
beware
leaste
Ceres
be
there
at
the
feast
,
for
shee
will
eate
a
whole
shoulder
of
you
for
meere
spite
:
because
she
knoweth
that
you
haue
beene
verie
vnfaithfull
to
women
kinde
.
But
if
Mercurie
loue
you
so
wel
as
he
did
Pelops
,
and
lend
you
an
Ivorie
shoulder
to
beare
away
a
bobbe
,
and
commaund
Clotho
to
call
you
to
life
againe
,
then
come
to
me
and
I
will
say
more
to
your
matter
of
loue
,
till
then
I
praye
you
giue
mee
leaue
to
chuse
whether
I
will
loue
you
or
not
.
C.
Some
women
thinke
it
is
as
martiall
a
victory
with
their
tongues
to
ouercome
&
win
the
wisp
,
as
we
shepheards
with
our
pipes
to
win
the
garland
.
But
in
al
the
dialogues
wher
shepherds
vse
to
speak
,
note
that
he
which
speaketh
last
ouercommeth
most
.
Would
I
might
say
no
more
but
Vici
(
as
none
may
saie
)
not
Veni
,
vidi
,
as
all
may
saie
,
or
Veni
,
vidi
,
vici
,
as
Caesar
and
those
which
are
more
worthie
of
your
presence
.
A.
And
would
I
cold
conquer
Caesar
with
words
as
he
won
some
nations
without
deeds
then
I
protest
Corydon
should
feede
my
sheepe
on
the
mountaines
,
and
Tityrus
my
goates
on
the
rocks
,
but
vnto
my
presence
,
no
such
vulgare
creepinge
wormes
should
approch
;
no
not
to
my
solitary
presence
.
Tit.
Content
you
faire
ladie
albeit
you
are
the
pride
of
euerie
braunche
,
it
standeth
with
your
humility
&
honor
,
to
entertaine
seruice
sometimes
vnto
your
person
:
least
forgetting
what
you
are
,
you
remember
what
you
should
not
,
and
so
alwaies
vsing
to
walke
in
the
aire
,
you
forget
to
walke
aright
vpon
the
earth
:
&
for
want
of
the
true
vse
of
your selfe
,
you
maie
soone
fall
.
For
all
thinges
that
are
of
great
substance
do
decline
down-ward
,
&
the
light
things
are
lifted
vpwarde
:
so
you
maie
catche
that
foule
fall
on
the
backe
.
C.
Tityrus
counsell
is
good
,
though
somewhat
swinish
.
A.
And
so
is
not
your
talk
because
it
is
more
then
swanish
.
C.
You
are
not
to
be
angry
when
you
are
giltles
,
for
that
is
not
the
intire
property
of
a
courtier
,
but
rather
the
contrary
.
A.
Neither
are
shepherds
to
prate
but
of
goates
&
lambes
.
T.
So
we
do
of
the
lambes
of
Venus
,
which
cause
the
sons
of
carefull
parentes
to
come
home
once
a
yeere
for
their
sins
,
with
the
prodigall
,
when
they
haue
eaten
acornes
for
their
mistris
sake
seuen
long
yeers
.
C.
Come
Tityrus
,
let
vs
sing
for
Amaryllis
sake
,
&
contend
for
her
,
sith
wee
can
not
haue
her
giuen
vnto
mee
.
T.
Then
if
I
sing
best
,
king
Midas
shall
iudge
for
me
,
because
her
dignitie
ought
not
to
be
censured
by
one
no
worthie
then
our selues
.
A.
Doe
so
,
and
if
hee
iudge
for
either
of
you
I
will
bestowe
a
greene
Veluet
hoode
on
him
,
to
hide
his
Asses
eares
:
and
on
you
both
my
iollie
Shepheards
two
Oten
pipes
that
you
may
conuoye
vnto
his
eares
,
such
melody
as
is
most
fit
for
his
merite
.
R.
M.
A.H.A.As
.
But
begin
your
plaine
song
.
Corydon
and
Tityrus
contention
.
Cor.
In
a
time
of
merrie
sporte
,
Amaryllis
did
resorte
,
With
her
gratious
louing
lookes
To
the
Chrystall
running
brookes
:
Where
I
Corydon
did
dwel
,
Corydon
the
sheapheardes
spell
:
For
to
shepheardes
doth
belong
,
All
the
pride
of
wanton
song
.
There
to
Amaryllis
viewe
,
Shepheard
sent
his
homage
dwe
:
Such
a
seruice
as
of
right
,
Came
to
short
of
such
a
wight
.
For
I
sent
my
thoughtes
vnfit
,
To
admire
at
such
a
wit
:
And
I
sent
my
daseling
eyes
,
To
behold
the
Empire
skies
.
Tity
.
Shepheard
leaue
thy
fonde
conceite
,
For
her
beautie
prooues
a
beyte
:
To
beguyle
the
craftist
eies
,
That
in
court
doe
skale
the
skies
.
Like
as
fishes
saye
to
flee
,
When
dame
Venus
star
they
see
.
Cor.
O
sweete
Amaryllis
face
,
Giues
my
muse
a
sower
disgrace
:
Drownds
in
Lethe
al
my
arte
,
Setteth
at
her
heele
my
smarte
:
Tityrus
my
fellowe
swaine
,
Seekes
her
heauenly
lookes
to
gaine
.
Tity
.
T
is
our
tender
Lambes
haue
part
,
Of
the
ioyes
of
her
sweete
hart
:
They
as
she
,
and
she
as
they
,
Innocentes
faire
lookes
bewray
.
Cor.
Amaryllis
whiles
we
striue
,
Keepes
our
tender
flockes
aliue
:
For
our
flockes
well
kept
doo
prooue
,
That
she
cares
not
for
our
loue
.
Tity
.
Haplesse
wee
,
and
happie

:
Of
all
that
dwell
in
Italie
.
Corydons
contention
.
In
Crotona
Sicill
mount
,
Amaryllis
Paramount
,
Liues
and
loues
no
worldlie
fame
,
Loues
of
life
to
keepe
her
name
.
He
that
dooth
approch
her
grace
,
Must
appeare
an
Angels
face
:
For
her
presence
will
appale
,
Him
that
best
can
tell
his
tale
.
Whispering
lips
,
like
nets
,
which
call
,
Heauenly
quailes
to
be
her
thrall
:
Sweet
notes
liking
to
inspier
,
Like
,
but
not
like
,
Syrens
hier
.
Such
a
voice
as
dooth
inchante
,
Nightingals
her
walks
to
haunt
.
In
both
cheekes
her
ruddy
type
,
Makes
them
sing
of
cherries
ripe
:
Then
like
Ecco
she
dooth
vse
Notes
,
which
makes
them
stay
&
muse
.
Notes
which
from
the
hearers
eye
,
Make
drops
fall
as
from
the
skie
:
Notes
which
through
her
straunge
right
eye
,
Send
forth
pictures
of
the
skie
.
Which
eie
when
it
dooth
ascende
,
Then
behold
I
see
my
ende
:
For
no
tongue
can
then
relate
,
How
sun-beames
loue
thoughtes
amate
:
Can
there
proceed
from
Nature
more
giftes
,
or
of
nurture
more
rewardes
then
Amaryllis
inioyeth
?
not
to
her selfe
inioyeth
,
but
doth
to
her
frinds
participate
,
vertues
for
their
learning
&
examples
for
their
liuing
.
And
surely
Tityrus
t
is
in
vaine
that
we
sollicit
her
with
vaine
loue
,
for
they
whose
sage
wittes
are
inhabited
with
such
relations
,
cannot
be
at
leasure
to
Cupids
inuentions
,
For
the
Cock
is
most
proue
to
Cupide
.
For
the
Parrat
is
most
prompt
to
speake
.
the
which
secure
conceipt
hath
first
ingendred
of
the
braine
of
a
Cocke
,
as
they
faine
,
that
wisedome
sprang
first
of
the
braine
of
Parrat
,
which
was
the
first
Iuppiter
that
euer
spake
:
And
so
Mynerua
was
as
much
a
kinne
to
a
Parrat
as
Venus
to
a
Cocke
.
Tity
.
True
,
verie
true
.
But
I
see
shee
is
elected
by
Vesta
to
bee
Vestall
,
and
hath
either
sworne
Chastitie
,
or
Chastitie
sworne
her
.
Yet
because
in
mouing
of
her
,
wee
cannot
remoue
her
from
her
true
estimation
of
honour
,
wee
will
heare
her
and
see
her
and
saye
the
best
,
for
of
lest
medling
with
her
beautie
we
shal
soonest
get
her
bountie
:
And
of
most
praising
of
her
,
wee
shall
(
to
her
repute
)
most
flatter
her
.
For
if
she
would
admit
titles
and
vaine
appellation
,
then
shee
would
of
her selfe
soone
haue
high
estimation
,
and
so
be
Philautos
.
As
on
the
contrarie
,
if
shee
would
endure
fugillation
,
then
had
shee
of
her selfe
a
base
estimation

You
knowe
Amaryllis
,
in
Virgill
there
was
sometimes
a
famous
learned
man
of
our
trade
of
shepherding
,
who
was
also
a
famous
learned
man
in
his
own
trade
of
theeuing
,
who
after
manie
theeuish
exploits
,
at
the
last
stole
away
great
Hercules
faire
herd
:
which
he
brought
from
Geryon
the
tyrant
of
Spaine
,
brother
to
the
Philip
which
vsurpeth
those
dominions
.
This
Cacus
mistrusting
least
the
tracke
of
the
beastes
would
be
pursued
by
worthie
Hercules
,
drewe
them
all
backeward
by
the
tailes
into
his
caue
.
Hercules
freshsuing
his
herd
,
&
seeing
no
print
of
a
foote
toward
the
denne
,
but
all
froward
,
was
perswaded
as
the
craftiest
Fox
in
all
Aesope
wold
haue
bin
,
if
in
reuiewing
the
Lyons
den
he
had
but

Presently
after
driuing
the
rest
of
his
herd
by
the
wales
of
the
caue
,
they
chanced
to
low
:
(
&
as
all
creatures
know
their
own
call
)
so
these
stolen
cattel
did
bellow
vnto
their
fellowes
,
which
the
noble
personage
hearing
,
brake
the
dore
of
the
caue
,
&
the
necke
of
the
theefe
,
and
so
had
his
faire
flocke
againe
.
Amar.
Too
faire
a
death
for
so
foule
a
fact
.
Cor.
We
heare
in
Italie
that
there
is
now
as
cruell
a
Philip
in
Spain
as
there
was
a
Geryon
then
,
and
as
renowmed
a
Hercules
in
Fraunce
nowe
,
as
euer
there
was
king
of
Aegypt
.
This
Spanish
tyrant
hath
many
Cacus
of
his
league
&
nation
,
which
seeke
to
steale
away
that
faire
herd
all
of
milke
whit
cattel
,
which
Hercules
and
his
friend
preserue
for
breede
.
The
Cacuses
do
practise
by
pollicie
to
drawe
them
deformedly
into
their
vgglie
caues
,
but
the
Herculeians
indeuour
to
preserue
such
beautifull
breed
for
sacrifice
,
and
to
serue
holie
vses
.
The
Cacuses
haue
often
committed
this
pillage
vpon
all
the
neighbour
kings
herdes
that
inhabite
thereabout
.
I
require
therefore
of
thee
my
Tityrus
,
who
hast
often
heard
of
this
action
,
whie
the
Herculeians
do
not
presently
inuade
some
of
their
vsurpations
&
gaine
the
patronage
to
themselues
:
for
of
all
trials
speede
is
the
scope
&
felicitie
,
and
that
which
is
the
appetite
of
all
hope
.
Tity
.
This
I
thinke
the
first
labour
that
Hercules
must
achieue
,
is
to
see
the
death
of
the
monstrous
Lyon
in
the
wood
Nemea
,
which
can
neither
be
slaine
by
metall
nor
stone
:
then
may
they
more
easily
aspire
to
that
which
is
the
effect
of
the
first
labour
.
And
the
first
wil
be
the
cause
of
the
second
.
lerna
malorum
may
be
easily
victord
:
Si
Leoni
vulpem
adiungas
.
Hydra
is
the
second
labour
of
the
Herculeians
which
daily
they
do
victor
:
albeit
an
hundred
heads
succeed
vppon
the
necke
of
that
monster
so
soon
as
he
is
beheadded
:
yet
at
last
when
nature
shall
extinguish
that
monster
,
sich
Arte
cannot
sink
him
,
(
when
that
is
done
,
if
it
be
yet
vndone
:
)
Then
I
assure
my self
,
that
Hercules
in
France
shal
haue
such
successe
,
as
that
he
neede
not
neither
for
publique
honour
nor
for
priuat
weale
,
vndertake
any
more
of
the
twelue
labours
,
the
one
being
a
worke
of
pollicie
,
the
other
of
prowesse
.
Cor.
Then
Amaryllis
honor
you
sinceritie
of
Religion
with
your
chastitie
of
life
,
that
when
you
haue
all
things
belonging
to
present
estate
,
you
want
not
that
litle
Atomus
the
soule
(
which
other
women
they
say
want
)
which
of
your
future
and
celestiall
estate
must
be
the
forerunner
.
A.
For
your
counsell
Shepheard
I
render
you
gracious
lookes
,
the
rather
for
that
your
theame
tendes
not
vnto
gracelesse
loue
.
My
religion
I
account
the
right
of
my
countrie
,
and
the
inheritage
vsually
of
them
which
haue
none
other
lands
.
Euery
one
may
be
an
heire
(
as
in
Gauelkind
)
to
sincere
religion
,
in
which
the
yongest
hath
a
title
as
well
as
the
eldest
.
And
therefore
we
learne
that
worthie
men
haue
carried
the
burden
of
their
countrie
Gods
,
in
the
middest
of
any
spoiles
vpon
their
backes
away
:
amongest
whome
Aeneas
the
founder
of
our
natiue
soyle
is
canonized
,
Cor.
Then
do
I
marueile
Amaryllis
at
one
thing
greatly
:
I
haue
often
heard
you
alledge
as
an
aucthoritie
of
a
wise
Senatour
in
our
land
,
who
vsed
to
pronounce
,
that
of
the
two
Religions
,
there
is
but
one
end
and
that
the
one
is
but
a
little
the
farther
way
about
,
both
may
come
to
one
home
.
Ama.
I
haue
by
heare-say
so
been
informed
,
but
esteeme
no
trueth
but
one
,
neither
loue
I
that
Ianus
should
mock
me
in
my
iourney
;
and
when
I
were
faire
for
it
,
should
stand
in
some
place
of
doubtfull
way
,
with
two
faces
vnder
one
hood
,
&
point
both
waies
:
so
that
I
may
mistake
him
,
and
go
the
longest
way
about
:
I
may
so
be
wearie
of
my
life
,
if
the
way
be
a
purging
&
faintie
hoat
way
,
before
I
come
to
my
iourneys
ende
.
I
haue
heard
of
two
Ladies
which
often
are
placed
in
the
way
where
all
Herculeians
walke
:
the
one
ladie
Voluptuous
,
the
other
ladie
Vertue
:
and
that
the
plesurable
ladie
hath
the
more
efficient
perswasions
to
induce
trauellers
to
their
destruction
,
then
ladie
Vertue
hath
to
reduce
them
to
their
saluation
:
That
her
way
is
faire
and
broad
,
and
promiseth
more
assurance
of
rest
then
ladie
Vertue
doth
:
whose
pathes
are
vnpleasant
,
whose
waies
tedious
,
but
in
the
end
,
there
is
a
Paradise
of
most
daintie
deuises
,
which
Corydon
you
knowe
is
most
fit
for
Ladies
,
and
most
fauoured
of
mee
.
Cor.
Good
reason
Amaryllis
,
that
you
should
fauour
the
soules
health
aboue
the
bodies
,
and
things
to
come
rather
then
pleasant
conceipts
which
are
present
deceites
.
The
Dialogue
I
haue
conuerted
for
your
vse
out
of
his
proper
language
in
the
most
famous

Memorabilium
.
As
I
wandred
all
alone
,
In
these
greenewoods
Sommers
clothing
,
To
my selfe
I
made
my
mone
,
Why
I
had
my
life
in
loathing
.
At
the
last
the
carefull
aire
Did
conuey
my
cause
of
mourning
To
these
Ladies
passing
faire
,
Who
well
knew
my
inward
burning
.
To
whome
when
I
vaild
my
Crest
,
Vailde
my
Armes
before
their
presence
,
And
beheld
lawne
apornes
prest
,
Pure
like
Altars
for
my
Incense
,
Then
I
ceast
not
to
recall
,
Hilles
,
woods
,
groues
,
trees
,
dales
,
al
wandring
,
Which
accompanied
my
thrall
,
Wordes
,
nor
deeds
,
nor
comfort
rendring
.
When
these
Ladies
had
agesse
Who
I
was
that
so
did
trauell
,
Did
their
sacred
termes
addresse
,
To
conuey
mee
from
my
perill
.
Voluptas
.
First
dame
Pleasure
did
presume
,
Shining
brightly
not
by
Nature
,
Shinde
cares
like
clowdes
to
consume
,
With
the
blasing
of
her
feature
.
And
her
eies
were
open
wide
,
That
shee
quickly
might
intangle
,
Most
vaine
lookes
which
catch
at
pride
,
As
the
fish
doth
at
the
Angle
.
And
her
garments
in
like
sort
were
as
wide
and
worne
wide
open
:
Entertaining
bold
resort
,
Knew
her
shop
without
a
token
.
But
I
musing
at
her
gate
,
Marueiled
at
no
such
wunder
,
As
to
see
her
shadowes
state
,
And
her selfe
to
stand
a
sunder
.
For
I
thought
no
Atomie
To
be
of
so
small
acquaintance
,
As
to
want
her
companie
,
Or
to
seeke
her
lewd
alliance
.
Shee
began
to
make
report
Of
the
youthes
of
her
profession
,
Which
shee
cald
a
sweete
consort
Of
fine
wittes
without
discretion
.
I
ioy
Amaryllis
to
see
a
fable
so
to
agree
with
truth
.
They
say
,
into
the
Elyzean
fieldes
there
be
two
wayes
prepared
,
one
faire
,
broad
,
pleasant
,
carelesse
:
the
other
foule
,
narrowe
,
tedious
,
hideous
,
and
carefull
.
He
that
taketh
his
pleasure
on
the
waie
,
there
is
no
reason
he
should
haue
it
at
his
iourneies
ende
.
He
that
laboureth
&
is
in
his
trauaile
,
will
be
merrie
at
night
.
This
pleasant
way
hath
assayed
many
wise
men
,
but
allured
none
:
For
it
assaulted
Vlysses
by
incantation
of
Circe
and
Calypso
,
by
vocation
of
Syrens
musicke
,
by
bitter
sweete
delightes
:
such
as
the
voluptuous
ladie
preferred
to
our
Hercules
.
If
Vlysses
had
not
discoursed
like
a
wise
trauailer
with
Circe
,
and
perswaded
in
the
deepest
propertie
of
an
Oratour
with
Calypso
,
and
preuented
in
pollicie
,
by
stopping
his
eares
from
the
womanish
harmonie
of
Syrens
,
in
the
one
he
had
beene
metamorphosed
with
his
whole
Regiment
into
Bores
and
hogges
and
brute
beastes
(
for
such
are
all
men
sensles
in
their
delightes
,
)
in
the
other
he
had
beene
tourned
headlong
into
the
sea
for
a
pray
to
a
sight
of
hungrie
fidlers
,
who
neuer
pyped
better
then
when
they
lacked
meat
for
their
dinner
.
And
then
they
plaied
to
picke
such
noble
mens
purses
as
Vlysses
,
and
bring
their
liues
into
a
Sea
of
vtter
destruction
and
want
.
A.
Corydon
,
I
desire
to
know
whie
Tityrus
being
so
faithful
a
friend
vnto
you
,
and
so
continually
in
your
companie
learneth
not
your
vaine
of
speaking
,
and
speaketh
not
more
often
.
Cor.
Tityrus
my
beloued
Tityrus
,
speaketh
seldome
and
therfore
more
wisely
.
Herein
I
thanke
you
,
that
you
reprehend
my
multiloqus
and
fribolus
wordes
:
in
deede
hee
that
speaketh
much
,
offendeth
much
,
and
silence
sometimes
is
safe
speaking
,
for
the
tongue
a
little
creature
is
too
often
a
tall
fellow
of
his
handes
,
but
the
heart
often
maketh
the
heeles
to
bee
nimble
and
the
tongue
speakinge
so
much
idlelie
,
leaueth
nothing
for
the
heart
to
saie
or
allowe
:
which
maketh
and
turneth
golden
mines
into
leaden
pigges
,
and
often
maketh
a
mountaine
to
bringe
foorth
a
mouse
.
Am.
Say
no
more
of
promises
Corydon
,
for
though
you
insinuate
thereby
into
the
feeblenes
of
womens
wittes
,
which
are
often
drawne
with
pleasaunt
delightes
of
mens
subtiltie
,
and
importunate
flatterie
to
promise
more
then
honestlie
they
may
performe
:
Yet
holding
second
counselles
,
with
the
friendes
that
belonge
to
their
owne
honour
,
Tityrus
.
Naie
then
Amaryllis
,
you
disparage
the
workes
of
fidelitie
,
which
are
inherent
more
in
generous
mindes
,
then
in
degenerous
persons
:
whose
feare
of
some
misfortune
arguing
their
cowardize
,
doe
not
because
they
dare
not
,
performe
all
they
promise
.
Ama.
Naie
doe
not
,
because
they
cannot
performe
anie
such
hastie
promises
.
Tityrus
.
What
call
you
promises
in
hast
that
be
not
promises
in
wast
.
Ama.
Promises
in
hast
are
,
when
suters
whose
green
attire
professe
them
to
be
Robin
Hoods
men
:
yet
shoote
in
Cupids
bowe
at
Dianas
seruants
.
To
them
a
tale
of
Robin
Hood
,
and
a
promise
sent
home
,
by
Long
the
carrier
belongeth
.
Tity
.
And
when
promise
you
in
wast
?
Ama.
In
wast
when
the
faith
of
promise
opposed
to
the
falshood
of
men
,
makes
them
fullie
perswaded
of
loue
at
our
handes
,
when
they
seeke
nothing
but
luste
,
and
so
beeing
intangled
with
faire
promises
will
thinke
no
more
of
foule
actes
.
And
so
we
induce
them
to
wast
in
fonde
loue
:
because
they
would
induce
vs
to
tast
of
filthie
lust
.
Cor.
For
their
vile
regard
of
your
honour
,
they
haue
a
vile
reward
of
your
honestie
.
Tity
.
Naie
of
our
honestie
,
for
they
haue
but
small
honestie
,
that
vse
men
so
dishonestlie
.
Ama.
Women
are
verie
vngracious
,
because
men
are
verie
vngratefull
.
Tity
.
Men
are
verie
vngratefull
,
because
women
are
verie
vnfaithfull
.
Ama.
Women
are
verie
politique
,
because
men
are
verie
deceitfull
.
Tity
.
Men
are
verie
deceitefull
in
deede
,
because
the
women
are
verie
beautifull
indeede
.
Ama.
Women
are
verie
faire
indeede
,
and
therfore
men
are
verie
false
in
worde
.
Tityr
.
And
women
being
verie
faire
in
face
,
and
not
true
in
heart
,
are
as
their
physiognomy
presageth
of
them
.
Amaryllis
.
Are
you
skilled
in
the
physiognomie
?
as
how
I
pray
you
?
Tityrus
.
If
high
in
forehead
,
then
women
are
high
in
minde
,
couragious
like
a
Lyonesse
,
and
verie
liberall
of
one
thing
or
other
.
And
it
importeth
desire
of
Empire
and
rule
,
and
the
gouernement
to
rest
in
their
feeble
discretion
.
Amaryllis
.
But
how
if
they
be
contrarie
,
and
in
the
forehead
low
?
Tityrus
.
Then
it
signifieth
accordingly
lowe
and
base
mindes
,
and
sorrowfull
heartes
,
passionate
and
discontented
,
because
the
blemish
being
in
the
fairest
place
and
most
visible
causeth
them
to
seek
the
darkest
places
,
eschewing
companie
to
liue
solitarie
and
inuisible
.
Amaryllis
.
And
what
purporteth
a
frowning
forhead
with
clowdie
lookes
?
Tityrus
.
It
importeth
boldnesse
,
and
in
a
woman
foolehardines
,
and
sauage
Lyonlike
(
or
if
you
will
haue
it
)
in
desire
like
a
Bull
,
as
in
forehead
like
a
Bull
frowning
:
and
also
readie
to
wish
her
husband
those
ornamentes
which
should
manifest
to
the
worlde
her
secrete
disposition
,
not
without
some
reason
,
for
they
are
more
fit
for
a
man
then
for
a
woman
.
A.
Well
,
passe
on
with
your
pastoral
discourse
&
skill
to
determine
of
things
beyond
your
Tarbox
,
and
tell
of
the
physiognomie
of
the
eies
.
Tityrus
.
Small
Ferits
eies
,
shewe
them
to
be
toyish
like
Apes
,
as
bigge
setled
,
dull
:
vnsharp
eies
,
shewe
them
to
be
sluggish
,
vnwelding
like
a
Cowe
with
a
bonegrace
on
her
head
:
hollowe
eies
,
witchcraft
full
of
rancour
and
secret
malice
:
great
gogling
eies
,
foolishnes
,
for
you
know
t
is
proper
to
an
Asse
.
Somewhat
a
little
hollowe
,
signifieth
stout
courage
and
magnanimitie
like
a
Lyonesse
.
But
if
they
be
verie
open
and
rowling
,
beware
of
impudencie
:
for
it
is
one
of
the
two
viperous
brood
and
daughters
of
my
ladie
Carelesse
,
and
Insolencie
is
the
other
daughter
:
For
as
Tully
hath
,
to
neglect
what
repute
the
world
shall
carrie
about
of
you
,
is
not
only
the
propertie
of
an
impudent
creature
,
but
of
a
dissolute
bodie
.
But
to
come
to
particulars
,
Amaryllis
,
eies
more
fit
for
Aristotles
description
are
blacke
,
which
signifieth
no
mutation
but
constancie
.
In
that
they
haue
the
litle
Hasle
circlet
which
doth
inuiron
and
hedge
in
a
golden
fleece
in
the
middest
of
your
right
eie
,
which
shepherdes

to
steale

if
it
spie

first
,
it
depriueth
them
of
all
liuing
sence
,
leauing
them
onely
vegetatiue
sence
like
vnto
trees
,
because
of
their
presumption
,
which
are
but
markes
to
tell
of
the
boldnesse
of
them
that
went
before
,
vnto
them
that
shall
followe
after
.
And
in
a
worde
,
the
whole
physiognomie
of
the
eies
shall
be
in
this
sentence
concluded
:
Quanto
maior
tanto
minor
malitia
:
sed
stultitia
maior
.
Amaryllis
.
I
like
your
Rosemarie
you
giue
mee
Tityrus
,
but
not
your
Fenell
.
Let
vs
heare
of
the
lippes
.
Tity
.
They
cannot
be
deuided
except
they
were
first
closed
;
nor
can
not
be
described
,
except
they
be
disclosed
:
and
cannot
be
disclosed
openlie
,
except
they
be
touched
secretlie
.
Therefore
faire
Amaryllis
,
sith
euer
you
haue
repelled
mee
from
the
one
,
blame
me
not
though
I
faile
in
the
other
,
for
honour
me
first
in
this
,
and
honour
wil
nourishe
a●tes
.
Tantalus
hath
not
anie
nice
taste
,
if
he
haue
any
at
all
:
nor
Sisiphus
any
knowledge
of
the
Christmas
holidaies
,
if
he
knowe
of
anie
:
nor
anie
ende
of
his
labour
,
if
he
haue
anie
ende
of
his
water
and
worke
.
Wherefore
that
I
maie
report
of
Paradise
,
let
me
tast
of
Euphrates
:
Ama.
You
are
besides
your
manners
,
and
therefore
I
maruell
not
to
see
you
besides
your
matters
.
But
in
conceite
vse
your
pleasure
,
so
you
maie
by
imputation
be
admitted
to
be
blessed
.
Tity
.
I
shall
thereby
be
as
happie
as
the
Hackenie
man
is
,
who
often
is
as
poore
as
Irus
,
because
often
his
Horses
are
of
the
colour
of
Iris
,
which
in
deede
is
no
colour
,
as
they
are
often
to
him
,
because
they
are
not
with
him
.
As
to
mee
you
vse
the
worde
conceite
,
so
to
him
they
vse
the
deede
deceite
.
And
they
saie
to
him
as
you
saie
to
me
,
beleeue
well
and
haue
well
.
Sic
ego
rescribo
de
tuo
palfrido
,
crede
quod
habes
&
habes
.
Ama.
Well
nowe
you
maie
returne
from
your
pleasure
,
and
describe
the
want
of
your
pleasure
.
Tityrus
.
In
a
worde
,
the
lippes
are
praised
as
please
euery
man
to
like
of
them
.
And
there
is
no
greater
heed
to
be
taken
,
then
that
they
open
not
their
wardes
for
feare
lest
they
let
out
many
out
of
their
dungeon
.
Ama.
Many
what
?
Tity
.
Many
chargeable
prisoners
,
which
will
cause
a
heauie
action
to
lie
against
the
person
,
I
meane
corrupt
words
,
for
which
all
men
may
condemne
one
,
or
corrupt
breath
,
from
which
all
men
will
commend
one
.
Ama.
You
are
disposed
to
enioyne
my
absence
.
Cor.
No
,
Amaryllis
rather
to
enioy
your
presence
.
I
will
proceede
if
Tityrus
will
not
.
Tity
.
do
so
,
&
I
will
clime
with
admiration
vp
into
the
faire
branches
of
this
tall
Castanea
tree
,
from
which
by
that
time
Corydon
hath
told
my
tale
by
Arithmetike
,
I
can
deduct
three
little
sprigs
,
and
then
Amaryllis
,
&
this
goodly
tree
wil
be
of
one
name
and
nature
.
Cor.
Lips
which
be
soft
and
smooth
and
neighbourlike
kisse
eche
other
,
signifie
vnitie
and
redines
to
wage
battell
against
the
rauening
Lyons
that
would
rudely
pray
vpon
their
cheries
.
Such
are
yours
Amaryllis
.
Those
that
are
verie
hard
and
rugged
and
blewe
like
a
Saphire
,
declare
that
swine
liue
vpon
the
Acornes
which
they
find
vnder
euery
tree
,
where
for
a
messe
of
commons
in
Epicurus
kitchin
,
they
open
their
quiuer
to
euerie
mans
arrowe
.
A
verie
thick
vpper
lippe
hanging
ouer
too
much
,
is
neuer
troubled
with
too
much
wit
.
And
a
thicke
vpper
lip
turning
vpward
that
the
gumme
may
be
perceiued
,
is
construed
by
the
similitude
of
snarling
to
be
a
dogg
,
at
least
a
reprochefull
creature
.
A.
And
what
of
the
nose
?
Cor.
The
tippe
of
the
nose
being
fleshie
,
signifieth
no
worse
matter
then
fleshly
lust
:
But
turning
vp
withall
,
signifieth
by
comparison
a
Swyne
,
&
in
veritie
it
noteth
sluggishnes
.
The
tippe
being
sharp
foresheweth
,
as
the
prouerbe
of
(
Mucterisme
)
Nasuti
homines
telleth
,
an
angrie
Scoffer
:
Tullies
Offices
,
&
especially
fortitude
.
Ama.
C.
litle
,
like
an
Ape
.
Great
,
like
an
Asse
.
Flapping
,
like
a
foole
.
But
moderate
eares
are
naturall
to
all
people
,
and
shewe
some
moderation
in
the
rest
of
the
senses
,
if
the
sences
be
framed
accordingly
.
Verie
round
eares
are
verie
vnfit
to
learne
.
And
verie
long
eares
,
are
verie
enuious
.
And
verie
much
cleauing
to
ones
head
,
are
of
some
vnknowen
ill
disposition
.
If
heares
be
in
the
eares
,
then
apter
to
heare
quickly
:
From
whence
our
terme
hearing
may
be
taken
.
Amaryllis
.
Nowe
tell
mee
in
generall
,
what
shape
of
the
face
and
countenance
is
best
destinate
by
dame
Nature
vnto
women
.
Corydon
.
If
fleshie
,
then
somewhat
sluggish
:
If
leane
,
then
curious
,
If
bigg
and
foggie
,
fearefull
like
an
Asse
,
or
as
the
Hart
is
.
If
round
and
somewhat
fat
with
a
little
blacke
spot
or
two
on
it
,
then
faire
Amaryllis
,
The
roundnes
sheweth
aptnes
of
proportion
,
as
a
temple
of
better
giftes
which
are
within
.
And
the
reason
why
the
spottes
are
,
is
that
a
little
contrarie
opposed
to
a
marueilous
singularitie
,
doth
make
that
which
is
verie
excellent
to
be
better
:
because
the
imperfection
standing
neere
beauties
grace
is
made
a
lesse
imperfection
,
and
beautie
a
more
beautie
.
As
blacke
annexed
to
white
,
maketh
white
more
white
,
and
blacke
more
perfecte
blacke
.
Now
for
the
countenance
,
if
it
looke
downeward
&
groueling
,
t
is
a
signe
of
an
Hypocrit
,
&
of
discontented
wickednes
.
And
a
drunken
countenance
,
a
drunkard
:
an
angrie
countenance
,
a
bed-lame
:
and
on
the
contrarie
,
a
shamefast
countenance
,
a
gracious
woman
.
Any
one
that
is
deformed
is
ill
manerd
likely
,
if
Nurture
be
not
the
predominant
ouer
Nature
:
as
Thersytes
of
whom
the
Poets
say
venerat
ad
Troiam
quo
non
deformior
alter
.
And
of
all
that
be
correspondent
in
manners
,
in
a
prouerbe
they
call
it
Thersitica
facies
:
Ama.
Why
then
I
perceiue
no
assurance
of
iudgement
but
vncerteine
gesse
to
be
in
the
physiognomie
of
women
,
and
all
your
proofes
to
be
like
the
Physitions
iudgement
of
a
womans
inferiour
partes
by
her
water
.
It
is
not
of
the
necessitie
of
his
science
to
knowe
more
by
the
water
then
is
done
aboue
the
gyrdlesteede
,
nor
of
your
Arte
to
decerne
more
then
you
see
apparant
in
the
face
.
And
that
you
describe
out
of
your
shepherdes
Calender
:
Whereby
you
can
tell
,
if
you
see
a
cloud
,
that
it
is
a
signe
of
a
showre
,
and
many
starres
bring
a
frost
:
and
the
euening
red
,
a
faire
morning
:
and
the
morning
gray
,
a
faire
euening
.
And
by
the
backe-bone
of
a
Woodcocke
,
you
can
tell
aswell
as
the
Woodcockes
selfe
,
what
weather
shall
insue
:
But
by
looking
in
ones
face
,
you
cannot
tell
what
money
shee
hath
in
her
purse
.
Your
science
makes
you
often
in
hope
of
a
faire
weather
to
clime
the
mountaines
where
the
Muses
stand
with
goads
in
their
handes
to
repel
you
swaines
,
and
you
forsake
the
base
and
humble
valleis
which
are
more
fit
for
you
.

This
and
more

Amaryllis

Onely

Wherefore
I

Dicite

Amaryllis

No

I

onely
impacient

that

Cor.
Are
you
nothing
Amaryllis
?
A.
I
am
no
such
thing
.
C.
Why
not
?
A.
Because
I
am
not
.
C.
That
is
a
womans
simple
reason
.
A.
It
is
a
good
and
subtill
reason
.
For
in
all
things
that
are
so
,
your
senses
ought
to
take
notice
that
they
are
so
,
and
not
to
call
in
question
why
they
are
so
:
Sensus
nulla
de
re
cur
ita
sit
indicat
.
As
if
it
be
fire
,
no
reason
to
aske
why
it
is
hoat
:
but
onely
to
haue
relation
to
the
effect
of
the
thing
.
As
if
it
be
fire
,
to
know
that
it
is
hoat
:
if
water
,
to
knowe
that
it
is
colde
.
Tit.
And
if
a
woman
,
to
knowe
that
shee
is
wilfull
.
Cor.
And
if
faire

to
knowe
,
that
shee

be
false

Ama.
And
if
a

,
to
know
that
he
knowes
manie
more
then
women

and
therefore
he
that

he
is

Tity
.
How
know
you
that
men
know
many
things
?
Ama.
Because
many
things
are
knowen
of
them
.
Tit.
Why
,
that
is
the
same
by
the
same
,
which
is
no
good
reason
.
A.
So
is
their
knowledge
the
same
by
the
same
,
which
is
no
good
order
.
Tit.
How
?
Ama.
As
to
know

C.
Blame
not
men
therein
Amaryllis
.
A.
Why
by
what
rule
Corydon

C.
Because
newe

an

Ama.
I
but
good
wine
neede
no
garlande
,
nor
good
women
any
such
customers
.
Tit.
You
say
well
,
for
they
are
knowen
as
well
without
a
Poesie
in
their
brestes
,
as
if
they
had
it
written
within
their
Rings
:
Viresco

A.
But
tel
me
Corydon
,
by
what
priuie
marke
of
countenance
I
may
know
the
complexion
and
disposition
of
such
creatures
?
Cor.
In
the
male
,
note
a
bonnye-face
leane
,
it
signifieth
a
dailaborer
,
&
a
man
of
a
cold
nature
by
reason
of
manie
losses
at
sea
.
A.
How
at
sea
?
C.
What
Sea
you
will
,
either
the
Sea
where
Flemish
hoyes

English

or
English
hoyes
beare
the
French
loading

whether
you

Am.
And
how
in
a
woman
?
C.
In
a
woman
,
if
shee
be
shamelesse
,
who
of
nature
should
be
shamefaste
.
And
though
in
a
man
,
the
face
is
almost
immutable
:
yet
in
such
a
woman
verie
soone
Vultus
mutatur
,
nam
a
volando
dicitur
.
Their
countenance
is
comming
and
going
:
for
it
is
deriued
of
a
fugitiue
word
,
by
reason
that
euery
Arte
hath
speciall
termes
to
expresse
it
.
If
shee
looke
yll
,
you
may
soone
perceiue
it
:
for
the
countenance
is
a
certeine
sylent
speech
and
dombe
shewe
to
declare
what
the
minde
and
the
bodie
are
.
Amaryllis
.
I
but
is
all
this
any
thing
certeine
that
you
haue
tolde
mee
?
Cor.
Not
so
sure
as
neuer
otherwise
.
But
this
knowe
Amaryllis
,
that
these
thinges
are
most
apparant
in
men
&
women
,
such
as
are
not
regenerate
and
washed
from
the
inclination
of
Nature
:
As
in
the
Adamites
,
whose
hard
heartes
want
mortifying
of
gouernement
:
Naturae
sequitur
semina
quisque
suae
.
Euerie
man
followeth
his
instillation
of
Nature
.
The
vse
of
Physiognomie
is
verie
auncient
:
For
Iacob
the
father
of
all
shepherdes
tolde
by
Labans
physiognomie
vnto
his
wiues
,
what
minde
Laban
bare
towardes
him
.
Amaryllis
.
Then
I
see
some
certeintie
to
be
in
the
science
.
But
in
a
worde
,
giue
me
the
signification
of
a
comely
person
,
and
of
a
deformed
creature
,
what
they
are
noted
throughout
all
partes
to
be
in
both
sex
.
Corydon
.
In
a
worde
,
a
woman
faire
in
all
partes
without
some
secrete
or
hidden
blemish
,
cannot
be
without
faire
conditions
and
honest
:
for
shee
is
called
of
the
Primotor
of
all
things
Man
hu
:
Distortum
vultum
sequitur
distantia
morum
.
Of
them
beware
,
whome
God
hath
any
waie
noted
in
the
face
or
else
where
.
They
that
are
not
deformed
,
are
more
like
their
Creator
,
whose
perfection
in
his
creatures
shewes
him
to
be
without
blemish
or
deformitie
.
By
this
you
haue
a
faire
caueat
to
beware
the
imperfection
in
shape
of
Tityrus
my
fellowe
swayne
,
whom
you
haue
often
noted
for
his
sauage
lookes
,
and
loue
you
the
simplicitie
of
Corydon
whom
you
haue
found
,
though
somewhat
mutable
,
yet
alwaies
honest
in
indeuour
to
perfourme
his
obedience
,
though
in
deede
,
too
short
of
his
dutie
.
And
if
time
shall
heale
greifes
by
killing
of
care
,
then
Amaryllis
,
my
herdes
of
Deere
,
and
flockes
of
sheep
mounted
vpon
mine
owne
hils
,
where
my
little
mansion
is
,
euen
Tame
like
sheepe
intangled
as
are
their
leaders
thoughtes
,
shall
waite
vpon
you
to
paie
their
owne
ransome
with
their
dearest
bloud
.
A.
I
but
Corydon
,
shall
not
I
waite
too
long
vpon
them
first
?
Care
is
yet
but
yong
,
and
therefore
strong
ynough
to
fight
with
Time
,
and
Time
is
rather
a
deuourer
of
mens
expectations
,
then
a
healer
of
their
griefes
:
for
to
gape
for
dead
mens
shooes
is
often
to
goe
barefoot
.
And
whiles
your
parkes
may
be
cloathed
with
Flora
,
&
your
woods
armed
with
strength
:
and
your
Swannes
that
in
Leander
at
the
bottom
of
your
mount
do
surmount
in
number
,
we
may
be
laughed
at
by
your
pleasant
fieldes
that
shall
be
for
our
present
follie
that
is
,
&
may
be
blowed
coldly
vpon
by
your
boysterous
Okes
,
yet
haue
we
no
aucthoritie
to
control
them
with
the
Axe
.
And
your
louely
Swannes
muing
themselues
vnder
your
chamber
windowe
,
may
make
vs
wish
our
enuious
eyes
were
out
,
rather
then
to
be
hold
so
much
future
pleasure
,
&
so
little
present
ioy
.
And
what
were
this
for
vs
to
be
in
obedience
of
elder
Care
as
his
children
continually
?
You
be
gotten
as
it
were
of
his
owne
marrowe
,
I
adopted
to
be
the
daughter
of
Care
for
loue
of
you
.
You
in
want
of
maintenance
to
liue
a
shepherds
life
:
I
in
want
of
sustenance
to
die
a
lingring
death
:
or
if
lingring
in
subiection
cannot
happilie
die
,
but
must
in
viewing
about
your
bitter
sweete
delights
,
behold
any
of
mine
owne
consort
,
as
the
Nightingale
which
now
in
my
virginitie
carrieth
no
fether
to
her
nest
,
but
asketh
leaue
first
of
me
,
to
accompanie
her
with
the
noates
of
my
simple
voice
,
that
thereby
the
labour
may
seeme
more
easie
,
yet
then
I
shall
see
them
carrie
apace
,
but
must
needs
thinke
as
they
poore
they
do
:
That
not
for
me
,
but
for
others
this
nest
is
built
:
for
the
profites
are
still
our
elder
Cares
.
We
should
see
the
Bees
haue
their
working
thoughts
&
their
thighes
loaded
with
Treasure
to
our
fightes
:
and
as
they
saye
,
we
must
say
:
not
for
our selues
but
for
others
.
See
the
wanton
Fawnes
skipping
to
fat
themselues
with
speed
,
and
as
they
say
we
say
:
not
for
vs
but
for
others
.
See
the
plentifull
&
gratefull
sheepe
for
their
bare
sustenance
render
this
maintenance
:
vdders
strowting
with
milke
including
farther
profit
,
most
fit
nourishment
for
our
infants
:
fleeces
on
their
backes
,
whereof
the
finest
cloth
is
made
:
tender
carcases
,
wheron
the
finest
people
feed
:
marks
on
their
foreheads
,
which
meane
not
for
our
gentle
shepherds
,
but
for
our
cruell
masters
the
elder
Care
.
Wee
may
see
the
trauailing
Oxe
worke
out
with
feare
and
trembling
his
own
destruction
.
And
so
all
things
wee
may
see
but
nothing
we
must
haue
.
Cor.
O
but
Amaryllis
!
t
is
somewhat
to
go
halting
by
Nature
,
better
then
not
to
go
at
all
.
And
better
haue
half
a
loafe
then
no
bread
.
And
that
so
wee
enioy
loue
for
euer
:
Let
vs
indure
pacience
for
a
while
.
Our
pleasures
wil
be
more
then
common
persons
are
.
I
am
noblie
descended
though
sauagely
I
liue
.
All
mine
is
all
yours
which
to
enumerate
wil
be
comfort
,
though
yet
not
commoditie
.
Faire
houses
without
large
rents
:
great
parks
without
trouble
of
tillage
,
both
seated
sweetlie
in
a
rich
prouince
:
which
euer
as
now
they
are
,
so
were
they
the
Granare
&
storehouse
of
prouision
and
victuals
to
all
our
Ilande
:
From
whence
the
whole
people
of
Crotona
haue
transported
vsually
to
comfort
the
borderers
in
annual
reliefe
,
an
hundred
saile
of
boates
and
lighters
loaden
with
grain
.
But
lest
the
praise
of
mine
owne
countrey
seduce
my
penne
to
lauish
,
and
lest
I
should
be
carped
at
to
write
our
incredible
perfection
by
reason
of
my
vnspeakable
affection
:
I
intreat
your
sweete
consideration
to
accept
in
good
parte
the
confirmation
of
our
blessednesse
by
mine
owne
relation
.
For
natiue
soyle
carries
away
euerie
sence
with
desire
of
delight
to
praise
it
and
pray
for
it
.
O
most
happie
dominion
,
whose
hap
it
was
to
be
more
blessed
then
any
other
parte
of
the
Continent
.
Thou
art
the
prime
&
the
chiefest
that
beheld
the
renowmed
Constantinus
Caesar
.
In
thee
he
left
his
Hart
for
liking
,
and
his
Hind
for
feeding
.
On
the
one
thy
name
was
written
for
remembrance
:
on
the
necke
of
the
other
,
his
name
was
written
for
assurance
.
Nature
hath
repaide
thee
thy
desert
beyond
thy
desire
,
thou
art
indued
withall
the
fruites
of
the
earth
,
and
all
the
fauour
of
the
ayre
,
in
thee
the
rewardes
of
seede
are
so
plentiful
,
that
Ceres
hath
her
barnes
indued
with
graine
,
and
Bacchus
his
presse
fulfilled
with
grape
,
in
whome
are
huge
woodes
to
couer
,
without
hydeous
beastes
to
deuour
:
in
whome
are
fertile
groundes
to
manure
for
foode
,
without
feareful
serpentes
to
procure
death
.
Againe
,
of
sillie
&
gentle
&
profitable
sheepe
,
so
great
is
the
multitude
,
that
for
their
bare
food
,
as
hating
ingratitude
,
they
yeeld
fleeces
fit
for
Iasons
labour
,
or
from
their
backs
for
Corydons
hyre
,
vdders
for
Corydon
and
Amaryllis
children
,
which
only
they
hold
vp
,
till
that
day
with
groning
to
haue
none
but
Amaryllis
infants
play
with
their
yong
ones
:
And
none
but
Amaryllis
seruaunts
to
bring
down
their
pride
&
swelling
teates
:
To
make
cruds
&
cum-butter
&
walwhay
only
for
Amaryllis
dairie
.
Saue
that
they
rather
choose
to
lose
their
wool
on
bryers
for
charities
sake
to
the
poore
,
then
that
their
masters
elder
Care
should
sheare
them
too
too
neare
for
couetousnes
.
And
they
wil
often
counterfait
sickenes
before
their
time
,
to
be
giuen
to
the
releefe
of
the
poore
,
rather
then
their
maisters
elder
Care
should
take
them
home
to
infect
their
shepherds
with
the
rott
of
Mutton
:
for
old
Care
is
euer
more
couetous
then
yong
Carelesse
is
prodigall
.
Touching
that
which
all
men
hate
the
darkenesse
our
Climate
is
daily
preuented
with
that
which
al
men
loue
the
lightnes
,
for
we
haue
none
but
humble
valleis
vnto
our
champion
,
&
no
fence
for
which
the
daytide
being
of
great
length
,
the
night
is
neuer
without
some
lightnes
:
Except
at
such
time
of
the
night
as
the
vttermost
plaines
of
the
earth
,
receiue
no
light
,
then
when
as
the
goall
of
night
and
of
the
heauens
is
ouercome
,
and
that
the
starlight
departeth
euen
in
the
intercession
of
the
newe
day
.
In
so
much
as
the
Sunne
which
to
all
other
people
seemeth
to
go
downe
and
fall
,
to
vs
appeareth
but
still
to
passe
away
.
Sith
then
Amaryllis
,
this
is
creat
onely
to
beare
flowers
for
my
garland
which
I
meane
to
bestowe
yerely
vpon
you
,
as
a
Coronet
for
your
patience
,
till
I
can
indow
you
with
the
whole
,
I
request
you
,
accept
my
abilitie
as
a
possibilitie
,
though
not
a
possession
to
inrich
you
withall
.
Ama.
Yes
Corydon
,
I
take
well
in
worth
your
singular
curtesies
,
but
may
not
breake
Vesta
her
lawes
for
loue
of
Ceres
,
nor
leaue
Diana
her
grace
to
seeke
Lucinas
helpe
,
nor
leaue
fountaines
of
Nectar
to
tast
riuers
of
water
,
nor
leaue
Manna
to
tast
of
Ambrosia
.
But
as
I
haue
put
on
the
stoale
&
Robe
of
dignitie
,
so
must
I
learn
to
shunne
indignitie
,
for
I
haue
many
eies
obiect
vpon
mee
:
eies
such
as
the
Pecocke
doeth
spread
to
enuie
faire
weather
&
prosperitie
:
eies
such
as
can
fascinate
the
tender
lambes
of
Diana
,
and
for
their
pleasure
haue
induced
them
to
aduersitie
eies
that
are
poreblinde
,
and
therefore
looke
nigh
vnto
others
.
Eies
that
are
bleared
and
so
cannot
see
into
themselues
.
Eies
like
the
Owle
to
see
what
is
done
in
the
night
.
Eies
like
the
Stare
to
watch
for
the
daie
.
Eies
like
the
Hawke
,
to
watch
aloft
for
a
fowle
.
Eies
like
a
Buzard
,
at
hand
to
sease
vpon
any
thing
.
Eies
of
a
Doue
,
but
eares
withall
.
Beware
of
little
Pytchardes
,
they
haue
great
eares
.
And
therefore
it
behooueth
me
to
borrowe
of
the
Eagle
her
eies
,
that
I
may
behold
the
Sunne
&
not
be
confounded
of
the
glorie
.
And
because
it
is
a
custome
among
Dianas
seruants
to
banquet
much
in
honour
of
our
mistris
,
I
do
vse
to
represse
that
outragious
god
with
a
more
sober
:
Cor.
Why
then
my
song
shall
be
of
patience
perforce
,
and
I
will
still
be
attendant
vpon
your
preferment
,
though
I
meane
to
goe
hide
my
shame
in
my
fathers
woods
,
that
once
might
not
haue
repented
mee
too
late
,
but
haue
releeued
my
true
loue
in
time
,
euen
with
the
enioying
of
Amaryllis
,
whose
ioyes
nowe
increased
shall
increase
my
bad
Muse
to
intreate
of
them
day
and
night
.
And
nowe
both
you
fountaines
&
drierie
woods
,
lende
of
the
infinite
soundes
and
innumerable
busshes
in
you
,
a
verse
for
euerie
budde
,
and
a
line
for
euerie
leafe
.
And
you
immeasurable
mountaines
in
heighth
expressing
my
high
desire
in
euer-liuing
greenes
,
manifesting
my
eternall
good
will
,
in
hugenes
remembring
her
impossiblenes
of
me
nowe
to
be
embraced
:
in
hauing
but
one
waye
to
go
vp
,
and
that
verie
narrowe
,
it
foresheweth
that
onely
vertue
must
be
the
path
that
leadeth
vnto
her
:
In
being
stored
with
Cedar
trees
,
foretelleth
mee
,
that
shee
inclyneth
to
high
honours
:
In
being
stored
with
sheepe
,
sayeth
shee
shall
be
riche
:
In
hauing
a
fountaine
,
sheweth
shee
hath
wisedome
:
In
hauing
humble
and
lowe
vallies
,
sheweth
that
shee
hath
true
humilitie
:
In
bearing
the
name
of
Pimplea
,
assureth
the
beholders
,
that
none
must
presume
before
they
be
called
,
lest
they
be
repelled
by
her
swaines
with
their
hookes
,
and
by
her
maynie
with
their
whips
.
You
senceles
creatures
receiue
mee
into
your
herd
for
as
mute
a
creature
,
though
not
so
brute
a
substance
as
you
,
till
I
being
well
acquainted
with
your
kinde
,
yeeld
glorie
to
my
mistresse
for
making
mee
silent
,
as
you
do
to
your
creator
for
making
you
a
subiect
.
Yet
not
silent
Corydon
til
I
haue
said
my
mind
,
once
more
to
moue
her
spirites
to
sing
vnto
my
Roundilay
her
mornings
tune
,
which
putting
vpon
with
her
gown
all
grauitie
,
shee
may
vse
to
modulat
to
this
dittie
.
Corydons
Hymne
to
the
praise
of
Amaryllis
.
Would
mine
eies
were
cristall
fountaines
Where
you
might
the
shadow
view
:
Of
my
griefes
like
to
these
mountaines
Swelling
for
the
losse
of
you
.
Cares
which
curelesse
are
alas
,
Helplesse
,
haplesse
for
they
grow
,
Cares
like
tares
the
number
passe
,
All
the
seede
that
loue
doth
sowe
.
Who
but
could
remember
all
,
Twinkling
eies
still
representing
Starres
,
which
pearce
mee
to
the
gall
,
Cause
they
lend
no
lenger
lighting
,
And
your
Nectar
lips
alluring
,
Humane
sence
to
tast
of
heauen
.
For
no
art
of
mans
manuring
,
Finer
silke
hath
euer
weauen
,
Who
but
could
remember
this
,
The
sweet
odors
of
your
fauour
:
When
I
smeld
I
was
in
blisse
,
Neuer
felt
I
sweeter
sauour
.
And
your
harmles
hart
annointed
,
As
the
custome
was
of
Kings
:
Showes
your
sacred
soule
appointed
,
To
be
prime
of
earthly
things
.
Ending
thus
remember
all
,
Clothed
in
a
mantle
greene
,
T
is
ynough
I
am
your
thrall
,
Leaue
to
thinke
what
eye
hath
seene
.
Yet
the
eie
may
not
so
leaue
,
Though
the
thought
do
still
repine
:
but
must
gase
till
death
bequeath
,
Eies
&
thoughtes
vnto
their
shryne
.
Which
if
Amaryllis
chaunce
Hearing
to
make
haste
to
see
,
To
life
death
shee
may
aduaunce
,
Therefore
eies
&
thoughts
go
free
.
Now
Amaryllis
,
ending
my
mirth
,
beginnes
my
moane
.
Now
departing
from
your
sight
,
I
shall
be
blinde
,
and
from
your
presence
I
shall
perish
.
Yet
vouchsafe
beauties
wanton
darling
,
so
called
for
that
you
haue
beene
pleasant
with
my
Kiddes
,
and
learned
to
smile
quickly
of
dame
Flora
your
grandmother
,
suffer
my
thoughtes
to
be
sent
as
suters
to
your
honour
to
protect
their
basenes
,
though
my
bodie
be
absent
from
your
sight
,
by
reason
of
vnworthines
.
Nowe
I
haue
fed
a
wanton
eie
,
I
will
go
feede
my
starued
flocke
:
and
sith
greater
dignitie
is
befallen
Amaryllis
then
my
infirmitie
must
thinke
,
of
my
accustomed
boldnes
shall
not
approch
your
presence
without
some
present
,
worthie
to
gratifie
so
high
degree
.
All
this
while
Tityrus
gathers
my
straying
flockes
to
his
straying
thoughtes
,
&
keepes
my
Kiddes
from
pride
which
would
insult
,
sith
they
haue
notice
of
Amaryllis
successe
.
But
let
Tityrus
my
beloued
Riuall
,
beware
lest
that
Libyan
white
one
,
which
wanting
a
play-fellow
,
and
going
to
Amaryllis
fountaine
to
seeke
her
,
do
not
fall
into
a
phrensie
for
absence
of
his
foster
mother
,
and
so
strike
him
sodaynly
with
her
horne
.
O
gracious
Amaryllis
,
why
do
you
recall
me
your
quondam
louer
,
roming
like
the
Woodoses
in
these
groues
,
to
view
that
you
must
flie
them
,
and
go
to
Dianas
courtes
?
Do
you
hate
me
?
No.
Then
you
must
loue
mee
.
True
.
For
in
Dianas
nymphes
there
is
but
two
dispositions
,
and
in
a
woman
ther
is
no
third
thing
:
Mulier
aut
amat
,
aut
odit
,
nihil
est
tertium
.
Then
do
so
still
.
Shall
I
be
the
same
in
fauour
when
I
come
to
mans
state
,
as
now
being
a
beardlesse
youth
?
Then
destroy
me
presently
that
I
may
die
before
the
cogitations
of
departure
bereaue
me
of
my
ioyfull
blisse
.
Behold
,
I
cast
before
thee
twelue
Queenapples
,
though
the
Gods
sent
down
but
one
,
all
pourporting
this
poesie
:
To
the
fairest
of
twelue
.
I
gathered
them
from
a
tree
planted
with
thine
owne
hand
,
which
makes
them
looke
so
like
heauenly
foode
.
Beholde
my
bitter
griefe
.
Why
hide
you
your
face
Amaryllis
?
Would
I
were
made
a
humming
Bee
to
serue
Dianas
hyues
,
that
so
in
her
mount
garden
I
might
see
my
Amaryllis
mounted
,
wearing
her
daily
garland
,
knotted
with
her
owne
haire
,
to
shewe
how
shee
hates
to
weare
anie
other
bodies
Thyrsus
.
Nowe
do
I
know
O
loue
,
that
thou
art
a
plagie
god
.
Certes
,
some
Lyonesse
was
thy
foster
mother
(
or
else
the
Poets
faine
)
when
Iaculus
&
you
ranne
away
from
your
own
mother
.
Or
else
you
were
Astyages
sonne
,
one
of
the
first
Monarchie
that
was
,
whom
when
your
mother
was
with
childe
of
you
,
your
father
dreamed
that
shee
bare
a
Vinebranch
in
her
womb
that
would
ouershadowe
all
Asia
:
Asking
counsell
of
the
Soothsayers
what
brood
shee
shoulde
breed
:
they
tolde
true
,
such
an
one
as
would
disturbe
all
Nations
,
and
deposede
your
own
father
from
rule
of
himselfe
.
Then
he
gaue
thee
,
O
Cupid
to
Harpagus
to
be
ouerwhelmed
with
the
obliuious
waues
of
the
Sea
.
But
he
vnhappie
engine
of
all
mens
woe
,
returning
into
a
wood
in
vnlucky
Persia
,
there
left
thee
at
randome
,
to
the
wide
worlde
.
Then
Spacon
,
which
in
the
Persian
language
is
a
dogge
,
was
thy
Nurse
,
and
so
art
thou
cruell
by
his
education
.
Such
an
one
is
Loue
,
that
whom
a
mad
dogge
byteth
,
he
is
madde
presently
vppon
it
.
I
burning
with
inwarde
fire
,
seeking
with
outward
teares
to
quench
the
outward
apparant
flame
of
loue
,
my
teares
serue
to
smother
my
heat
,
the
smoke
whereof
is
the
sooner
seene
.
So
outwarde
medicines
shewe
there
to
be
inwarde
griefes
.
Faire
looking
like
the
glorious
Diamond
,
in
worth
the
most
precious
Pearle
,
Nymphe
embrace
a
shepherde
with
your
lookes
,
then
they
may
kisse
mee
,
though
I
not
them
,
with
the
lippes
of
admiration
.
In
faire
lookes
,
are
vayled
with
modestie
sweete
kisses
.
I
will
go
gather
a
Coronet
,
and
will
weaue
&
infolde
it
with
the
knottes
of
truest
loue
,
with
greene
lawrell
Apollos
scepter
,
which
shall
betoken
her
wisedome
,
and
with
the
Myrtle
faire
Venus
Poesie
,
which
shall
shewe
her
beautie
.
And
with
Amaranthus
Dianas
herbe
,
whereby
bloud
is
stenched
,
so
may
shee
imitate
the
herbe
,
and
haue
remorce
.
Wo
is
mee
,
what
Aetna
shall
I
possesse
.
Will
not
Amaryllis
heare
?
Then
off
goes
my
pastoral
robes
made
of
my
dearest
Goates
cloathing
,
and
into
this
Lethe
I
runne
,
where
if
I
be
not
drowned
,
yet
eternall
forgetfulnesse
shall
make
mee
happie
.
Yet
there
the
fisher
Olpis
still
watching
,
may
take
mee
to
be
the
great
fishe
Thynnus
,
and
so
saue
my
life
,
and
bring
mee
to
shame
againe
.
But
I
will
do
it
,
for
then
sure
I
am
,
that
some
pleasure
in
hope
that
I
am
dead
will
possesse
Amaryllis
:
so
shee
retourning
with
ioy
to
see
,
I
maye
take
her
in
her
good
mood
.
All
is
in
vaine
,
Diana
calleth
,
and
honour
allureth
.
Lately
,
I
asked
counsell
of
Agraeo
a
Prophetesse
,
howe
to
knowe
whether
Amaryllis
shoulde
euer
loue
mee
,
shee
taught
mee
to
take
Telephilon
a
kinde
of
leafe
that
Pepper
beareth
so
called
of
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
,
because
it
foresheweth
loue
,
and
to
clap
the
leaues
in
the
palme
of
my
hand
.
If
they
yeelded
a
great
sound
,
then
surely
shee
should
loue
me
greatly
:
if
a
little
sound
,
then
little
loue
.
But
either
I
was
deafe
being
senceles
through
loue
:
or
else
no
sound
at
all
was
heard
,
and
so
Agraeo
the
diuinatrix
tolde
me
a
true
rule
.
Nowe
I
preferre
my
garlande
made
in
sorrowfull
hast
,
of
which
the
flowers
,
some
signifying
death
,
&
som
mourning
,
but
none
belonging
to
marriage
,
do
manifest
,
that
Amaryllis
hath
no
respect
of
meane
men
.
Come
gentle
Amaryllis
,
I
wil
go
fetch
that
milkewhite
Goat
,
which
hath
nowe
a
twinne
which
you
haue
euer
liked
,
&
sacrifice
her
to
your
liking
.
Will
you
not
?
Then
Erithacis
rich
though
not
so
faire
,
who
is
an
earnest
suter
to
me
shal
haue
them
,
because
shee
is
delighted
with
my
presence
.
But
my
right
eie
watreth
,
t
is
a
signe
of
somewhat
,
do
I
see
her
yet
.
O
faire
Amaryllis
,
be
not
angrie
,
though
I
talke
idlely
,
and
speake
like
one
distract
.
At
the
foote
of
this
Pine
tree
,
I
will
ende
my
lamentations
,
where
perhaps
shee
may
looke
backe
and
see
mee
;
for
shee
is
no
Adamant
.
I
would
I
could
preuent
her
swift
pace
as
Hippomanes
did
vnto
Atalanta
,
with
golden
Apples
which
Venus
hath
sent
mee
to
cast
before
her
,
that
shee
stooping
to
golde
,
might
be
ouertaken
.
But
gold
cannot
tempt
Chastitie
.
I
would
with
Bias
make
shift
to
obtaine
faire
Perones
,
though
the
Oracles
said
I
should
die
for
it
,
if
I
take
the
labour
in
taske
.
But
shee
seeketh
not
the
death
of
a
louer
.
I
would
with
Adonis
one
of
mine
owne
facultie
,
for
loue
of
Venus
watch
so
long
in
the
woods
,
that
the
wilde
bore
should
slay
mee
for
my
duetie
.
But
shee
hating
to
be
called
Venus
,
wil
rather
let
me
continue
dead
then
reuiue
mee
for
loues
sake
,
as
Venus
did
her
Adonis
.
I
would
be
like
Endymion
if
I
could
,
who
for
that
he
eschued
all
loue
,
and
followed
Dianas
life
,
he
fell
in
delight
with
perpetuall
hunting
in
the
woods
.
But
Amaryllis
will
not
be
Luna
to
induce
me
into
a
perpetuall
sleepe
,
to
the
intent
to
imbrace
mee
:
but
will
be
Luna
to
the
intent
to
flie
from
mee
.
I
would
be
Iason
if
shee
would
be
Ceres
,
and
vouchsafe
to
sleepe
with
mee
,
quasi
Geres
:
but
that
were
admirable
,
that
by
one
bare
sleepe
should
happen
,
yet
might
shee
be
Ceres
for
shee
beareth
glad
tydings
vnto
him
that
shall
haue
her
.
Thus
I
fainting
,
and
shee
not
caring
,
must
thinke
that
what
is
haplesse
should
be
carelesse
,
but
that
will
not
be
.
Then
heere
will
I
lye
and
let
my
flocke
starue
,
that
when
the
Wolfe
hath
eaten
them
,
he
may
be
so
good
vnto
mee
.
This
shal
please
Amaryllis
rather
then
continuall
importunitie
,
yet
departing
;
honie
of
the
Combe
shal
be
my
food
:
yet
will
I
eate
nothing
but
sweete
thoughts
:
and
the
ioyce
of
Pieres
shal
be
my
drinke
,
yet
will
I
drinke
nothing
but
the
spring
water
that
shee
last
washed
in
.
Where
by
the
puritie
,
I
shal
thinke
of
her
sinceritie
,
and
see
my
sorrowes
written
in
the
sandes
.
Here
will
I
waite
&
haunt
these
plaines
&
woods
,
looking
for
no
companion
,
but
the
louing
birde
which
delighteth
to
behold
the
face
of
a
man
,
of
him
I
will
loue
to
behold
the
face
of
a
goddesse
.
Heere
shal
I
finde
none
to
tune
vnto
mee
but
that
ladies
birde
that
counterfaiteth
to
chatter
with
a
small
shrill
voyce
as
they
do
,
&
faines
the
voice
of
a
Ladie
,
to
whom
I
will
vse
to
saie
:
O
the
voice
of
a
goddesse
!
And
whiles
Tityrus
is
with
our
flock
in
Crotona
,
I
will
sit
heere
till
I
see
Diana
come
bie
,
&
will
bethinke
mee
vpon
a
number
of
Hieroglyphiks
,
which
I
will
compose
in
some
order
shortly
,
and
preferre
them
to
Amaryllis
.
In
the
meane
while
,
let
this
my
Roundilay
end
my
follie
.
Sith
the
Nimphs
are
thought
to
be
happie
creatures
,
For
that
at

Helicon

Fountaine

Where

Daily

With

For

To

:
Should

Skies

Where
