h store of plums, Browne Almonds, Seruises, ripe Figs and Dates, Dewberries, Apples, yellow Orenges, A garden where are Bee hiues full of honey, Musk-roses, and a thousand sort of flowers, And in the midst doth run a siluer streame, Where thou shalt see the red gild fishes leape, White Swannes, and many louely water fowles: Now speake _Ascanius_, will ye goe or no? _Cupid._ Come come Ile goe, how farre hence is your house? _Nurse._ But hereby child, we shall get thither straight. _Cupid._ Nurse I am wearie, will you carrie me? _Nurse._ I, so youle dwell with me and call me mother. _Cupid._ So youle loue me, I care not if I doe. _Nurse._ That I might liue to see this boy a man, How pretilie he laughs, goe ye wagge, Youle be a twigger when you come to age. Say _Dido_ what she will I am not old, Ile be no more a widowe, I am young, Ile haue a husband, or els a louer. _Cupid._ A husband and no teeth! _Nurse._ O what meane I to haue such foolish thoughts!
