❧Hymens Choyce.

FAire may shee be, but not opinion'd so, For that opinion euer lackies pride; Louing to all, yet so, as Man may know, Shee can reserue the proper name of Bride: For weak's that fort, and easie is't to win, That makes a Breach for all to enter in.
I'de haue her face and blush to be her owne, For th'blush which Art makes is adulterate, Splene may she haue, yet wise to keepe it downe, Passion, yet Reason too to moderate: Comely not gaudy, she and none but she Weares the best clothes, that weares to her degree.
FINIS.
