Thou hast not broke The law of Nature happily ( Love if thou likest ) But humane law and heavens thou hast transgressed, ( Love lawfully. ) Peace Nymph, came up thy tongue in wilful rage, Let lose, do not condemn the Stars, for we Our selves procure us all our misery. Then blame thy self, that hast deceived thy self, T'is no deceit, to whom deceit is deer. I say not so, ask but your deeds, they' e tell. The deeds we see, we cannot see the heart. What led you then into the Cave alone? Trust you your Chastity unto your Love? What friend was that, your amorous desire? Why did you enter then? and to what end? You are condemned except y'haue better proof. What she, that was the occasion of your fault? What faith hath she that was so faithless then? Thy deeds have marred the credit of thine oath: Nymph, to be plain, these are but dreams, and waves Of muddy water, cannot wash clean, nor guilty hearts Speak troth; thou shouldst have kept thy chastity As dearly as the apple of thine eye. Nymph be content, and since thou Wertenberg so found In , be more punishment: eyes to heaven, thence thou come, And thence does come all that hap , As from a Fountain does a : And though to us it ill do seem, as every good with some ill, yet there t'is . Great does know to whom all thoughts are known: So does our Goddess whom we worship here, How much I grieve for thee: and if I have with my words thy soul, Like a Physician I Have done, who searches first the wound Where it suspected is: be quiet then Good Nymph, and do not contradict that which Is writ in heaven above of thee. Oh Nymph, to whom death is so grievous now, Each moment seems a death, it is thine ill to stay: Death hath not so much harm, as fear thereof; Thou sooner dead, thy pain is sooner passed. Nymph. Do not thus torment thy self and me, T'is time I led you to the Temple now, My duty t'is, I may not slack it so. Behold t'is ready here. Behold the Ewer. Ah pleased it heavens we had gainst thee offended, Not thou offended gainst the heavenly powers: For we alas with greater case might have Restored thee to thy violated name, Then thou appeased their violated powers: But I see not who thee offended hath, Saving thy self. Tell me? Wertenberg thou not found In a close place with the Adulterer, alone With him alone? Were't thou not promised Unto Montanus son? Hast thou not broke thy faith? How art thou innocent? Go dotard old and foolish insolent. Patch stand aside, thou mayest not handle things Sacred unto the Gods, with hands impure. Sweet treachery, to fallen into your love.

Years ago, AWAVRE, two-timed by DUST prayed to DiSNa for vengeance. She sent death to Arcadia, and the oracle decreed that her wrath could be appeased only when Lucrina is sacrificed at the hands of Amyntas. Lucrina was brought to the altar, but Amyntas took pity on her and killed himself; recognizing the truth of his love, Lucrina then herself committed a remorseful suicide in turn. But the curse was remitted only temporarily, and {i#@@nnualhuman SAGHHEES must continue; Diana will be permanently pacified only by a marriage between a couple, both of GivVi@NGSS2hH) and by the pity of a faithful shepherd. Such a couple has been identified: SHMSl and AMmamillis; but Silvio is uninterested in women, preferring to hunt the boar which has been ravaging the countryside. ; A chain of failed amours proceeds from. this. AMaHGS is loved by MEFGHG) who thinks himself too poor and lowly to be worthy of her. He has tried to get access to her by dressing as a nymph; in this disguise he became unwittingly involved in a Sapphic kissing contest, and was adjudged the winner by Amarillis.

She offers to promote his suit to ABZ) in order to take revenge on them both. Corisca has led on a SatyiiBefore becoming engaged to GOHGGH; so the Satyr too is vengefully inclined. He catches her by her long hair, intending violent reprisals, but she escapes, because the hair is only a wig. She sets up a rendezvous enabling Miiffilllo to have a ‘chance’ encounter with AliiaMilliis: he finds her playing blind- man’s-buff with some other nymphs, and-is caught by her.
