In Youth, Before I Waxed Old (epigram)
In youth, before I waxed old,The blynd boy, Venus baby,
For want of cunning, made me bold
In bitter hyve to grope for honny:
But when he saw me stung and cry,
He tooke his wings and away did fly.
(The end)

So now I languish, till he please My pining anguish to appease. (* _Enured_, practised.)(** _Heast_, command.)(The end)Edmund Spenser's poem: Wanton Boy Was Shortly Wel Recured (epigram)
