Doubt you to whom my Muse these notes entendethA
Which now my breast surcharg'd to musick lendethA
To you to you all song of praise is dueB
Only in you my song begins and endethA
-
Who hath the eyes which marrie state with pleasureC
Who keeps the key of Natures cheifest treasureC
To you to you all song of praise is dueB
Only for you the heau'n forgate all measureC
-
Who hath the lips where wit in fairnesse raignethA
Who womankind at once both deckes and staynethA
To you to you all song of praise is dueB
Onely by you Cupid his crowne maintainethA
-
Who hath the feet whose step all sweetnesse plantethA
Who else for whom Fame worthy trumpets wantethA
To you to you all song of praise is dueB
Onely to you her scepter Venus grantethA
-
Who hath the breast whose milk doth patience nourishD
Whose grace is such that when it chides doth cherishD
To you to you all song of praise is dueB
Onelie through you the tree of life doth flourishD
-
Who hath the hand which without stroke subduethA
Who long dead beautie with increase reneuethA
To you to you all song of praise is dueB
Onely at you all enuie hopelesse ruethA
-
Who hath the haire which loosest fastest tiethA
Who makes a man liue then glad when he diethA
To you to you all song of praise is dueB
Only of you the flatterer neuer liethA
-
Who hath the voyce which soule from sences thundersE
Whose force but yours the bolts of beautie thundersE
To you to you all song of praise is dueB
Only with you not miracles are wondersE
-
Doubt you to whome my Muse these notes intendethA
Which now my breast oercharg'd to musicke lendethA
To you to you all song of praise is dueB
Only in you my song begins and endethA
