<l><i>Syren</i>. Come worthy Greeke, <i>Vlisses</i> come</l>
<l>Possesse these shores with me:</l>
<l>The windes and Seas are troublesome,</l>
<l>And heere we may be free.</l>
<l>Here mayu we sit, and view their toile</l>
<l>That trauaile in the deepe,</l>
<l>And ioy the day in mirth the while,</l>
<l>And spend the night in sleepe.</l>
<l n=10><i>Vlis</i>. Faire Nimph, if fame, or honor were</l>
<l>To be attaynd with ease</l>
<l>Then would I come, and rest me there,</l>
<l>And leaue such toyles as these.</l>
<l>But here it dwels, and here must I</l>
<l>With danger seeke it forth,</l>
<l>To spend the time luxuriously</l>
<l>Becomes not men of worth.</l>
<l><i>Syr. Vlisses</i>, O be not . . .
