How a certain Lover, and his Mistress, played together on the Virginals.
THey touch'd the keys with lovely strokes most quaintly,
And in their motion s'uniformly dangled,
That tails did up, whilst heads went down con∣joyntly,
The found-boord echoing, as the start-up brangled;
Being in their sharps and breaks, so quick and present,
That never was a harmony more pleasant.
