A maide of Dyans this aduantage found, And his loue-kindling fire did quickly steepe In a could vallie-fountaine of that ground: Which borrowd from this holie fire of loue, A datelesse liuely heat still to indure, And grew a seething bath which yet men proue, Against strang malladies a soueraigne cure: But at my mistres eie loues brand new fired, The boy for triall needes would touch my brest, I sick withall the helpe of bath desired, And thether hied a sad distemperd guest.
