Phyllidaes kind replye.
WHerefore faints my Coridon?Thinkes thou I am such a one,as Cressida?I will prooue as firme to thée,As Lucrece or Penelope,Coridon doubt not of Phillida.
Though I haue béen absent long,Faint not my sweet Coridon:thy PhillidaIs, as thou art, true and iust,Strong in loue, but weake in lust.Coridon doubt not of Phillida.
Nor, though our sex are giuen to range,Doth Phillida delight in change,my Coridon:If my absence made thee greeue,Let my presence now reléeueCoridon, my déerest Coridon.
As in me thou takest delight,So do I in thy swéete sight,

my Coridon:I haue bene in yonder groue,Gathering flowers for my loue:Coridon my dearest Coridon.
The chiefest both for shew and sent,So choice am I for thy content,my dearest loue:Looke, the liuery of the spring,to deck thee Coridon I bring,then do not thy Phillida reprooue.
Such a louing simphathy,in our loue•• (deare loue) doth lye:I know right well.Such a heart wrought combination,that I feare no separation:Coridon such néedlesse doubts repell,
FINIS.
