5.17 No, no, by these Nymphs o’ the lake, man; so surely as I wish ‘em kind and propitious, Comatas never laid sneaking hand on pipe o’ thine.
And well they may, for t’other day they had two goats for me.
A fine fat ram a-batt’ning; for Apollo’s feast draws nigh.
And the damsel sees and the damsel says ‘Poor lad, dost milk alone?’
And fouls his dear not a youth but a boy mid flowers that blow so plenty.
