VII. Sweete Cupid, ripen her desire.


                              1
  Sweete Cupid, ripen her desire,
  Thy ioyfull haruest may begin,
  If age approch a little nyer,
  Twill be too late too get it in.

                              2
  Cold Winter stormes lay standing Corne,
  Which once too ripe will neuer rise,
  And louers wish themselues vnborne,
  When all their ioyes lie in their eyes. 

                              3
  Then sweete let vs imbrace and kisse,
  Shall beautie shale vpon the ground,
  If age bereaue vs of this blisse,
  Then will no more such sport be found.
