Boyet: No my complet Maister, but to Iigge off a tune at
. the tongues ende, canarie to it with your feete, humour it
. with turning vp your eylids, sigh a note and sing a note som-
. time through the throate, if you swallowed loue with sing-
. ing loue sometime through: nose as if you snufft vp loue by
. smelling loue with your hat penthouse like ore the shop of
. your eyes, with your armes crost on your thinbellies doblet
. like a Rabbet on a [S]pit, or your handes in yo[U]r pocket like a
. man afte[R] the olde painting, and k[E]epe not too long in one

. traied without these, and make them men of note: do you
. note men that most are affected to these.

. To make my Lady laugh, when shees disposd:
. Tolde our intentes before: which once disclosd,
. The Ladies did change Fauours; and then wee
. Folowing the sign[E]s, wood but the signe of shee,
. Now to o[U]r periurie, to add more terror,
. We ar[E] againe forsworne in will and erro[R].
. Much vpon this tis: and might not yo[U]
. Forestall our sport, to make vs thu[S] vntrue?
. Do not you know my Ladies foote by'th squier?
. And laugh vpon the apple of her eie?
. And stand betweene her backe sir and the fier,
. Holding a trencher, iesting merrilie?
