¶Liedtext

One of her hands one rosy cheek lay under, Coz'ning the pillow of a lawful kiss, Which therefore swell'd and seem'd to part asunder, As angry to be robb'd of such a bliss. The one look'd pale, and for revenge did long While t'other blush'd, 'cause it had done the wrong. Out of the bed the other fair hand was, On a green satin quilt, whose perfect white Look'd like a daisy in a field of grass, And appeared like unmelt snow unto the sight; So lay this pretty fair one safe to keep Her lovely form that there lay fast asleep.
