Indeede I've had a tedyous mysse of thee.
_Tur_. What meanes your majestie? _Char_. I meane to live for ever on thy necke And bathe thy bossome with my joyfull teares. O thou arte sweete and lovelye as the sprynge, Freshe as the mornynge on the blushinge rosse When the bright sonne dothe kysse it. _Orl_. Ha, whats thys? _Tur_. I am your pore weake servant, an oulde man, That have but onlye prayrs to pleasure you. _Char_. Thou art all butye, spyces and perfume, A verye myne of imortallytie. Theise hayres are oth complexion of the skye, Not like the earthe blacke browne and sullyed. Thou hast no wrinckles: theise are carracters In which are wrytt loves happiest hystorye. Indeede I needs must kysse theym, faythe I will. [_Kisses Turpin_. _Orl_.--Wonder when wilt thou leave me? thys is straunge. _Rei_.--Nay, farre above my readinge. _Orl_.--Upon my life! The ould men will not ravyshe one another? |
