Fie man, I know you will not die for love: Ah Polidor thou needest not to complain, Eternal heaven sooner be dissolude, And all that pierceth Phebus silver eye, Before such hap befall to Polidor. Not yet father, I wonder he stays so long. Should thou assay to scale the seat of love, Mounting the subtle airy regions Or be snacht up as erst was Ganymede, Love should give wings unto my swift desires, And prune my thoughts that I would follow thee, Or fallen and perish as did Icarus. And should my love as erst did Hercules Attempt to pass the burning valtes of hell, I would with piteous looks and pleasing words, As once did Orpheus with his harmony, And ravishing found of his melodious harp, Entreat grim Pluto and of him obtain, That thou mightest go and safe return again. Should Polidor as great Achilles did, Only employ himself to follow arms, Like to the warlike Amazonian Queen, Pentheselea Hector's paramour, Who foiled the bloody Pyrrhus murderous Greek, I'll thrust my self amongst the thickest throngs, And with my utmost force assist my love. I sure and Like a loving piece, your worthy To have great praise for this attempt. You might have kept it better then, Who bade you lay? How now Polidor in a dump, what sayest thou man? Thats better then a sheep. They're even as well matched as I would wish. Great prince of Cestus, let a woman's words, Entreat a pardon in your lordly breast, Both for your princely son, and us my Lord.
