e vigor, through his brest disperse,
Such kisses louers vse at first conuerse.
All parts were to that center drawne I wis,
Close as the dew-wormes at the breake of day,
That his soule shew'd, as t'were a melting kisse.

Till breathles now, he breath'd into her loue,
Who scorn'd to take possession by degrees,
No law with her strange passion, will he proue,
But hauing interest, scorn'd one inch to leese,
_Cupid_, sheele set thee free withouten fees.
But though his wings she well nie set on fire,
And burn'd the shaft, that first her brest did moue,
Yet _Cupid_ would be Lord of her desire.

57

Tis sayd, _Aurora_ blushes euery morne,
For feare that _Titan_ should her fault espy,
And blushes so did _Hirens_ cheekes adorne,
Fearing least _Mahomet_ perceiu'd her eye.
Louers are blind, and what could he espy.
No, twas the hidden vertue of that kisse,

A kisse is the first Tutor and instinct,
The guider to the Paphian shrine and bowers.

Kissing shall finde it, and his sundry powers.
O how it moues this continent of aires,
And makes our pulse more strong & hye to beat,
Making vs know when lips are sweetly linck't,
That to those Kickshawes 'longs more dainty meate.

And so indeed bewitched _Hiren_ knowes,
The pressure of his lips was not in vaine,
Seldome proue women friends vnto their foes,
But when with ouer kindnesse they are tane,
So weake professors do swalow their owne bane:
Shew them the axe they'l suffer martyrdome,
But if promotion to them you propose,
And flattery, then to the lure they come.

Thus _Mahomet_ blinds her with _Cupids_ vaile,
And this new conuertite building on hope,
Loue makes folks hardy, alas the flesh is fraile,
