The bond of our Love is written in large profession, but not sealed with the contracting kiss yet.
So Sister, are not you asham'd?
No truly; for my love is so honest, and the subject of my love so worthy, as I am so far from being ashamed to own it, as I glory in my affection.
I only wonder that with so small acquaintaince, such a familiar friendship should be made.
You have no cause to wonder, for Innocency is easi∣ly known, tis craft and subtilty that is obscure, and treacherous falshood with leering Eyes, doth at a distance stand, when honestly and truth straight joyns in friendships bonds.
My Sweet, Innocent, Virtuous, Wise, Mistriss.
