itude willeth me not to refrain: Then blame me not, Ladies, although I indite What lighty love now amongst you doth rayne, Your traces in places, with outward allurements, Dothe moove my endevour to be the more playne: Your nicyngs and tycings, with sundrie procurements, To publish your lightie love doth me constraine."

(_j_) _Lear_ I, iv, 168, two verses sung by the Fool, 'Fools had ne'er less grace in a year.' (_k_) Ballads by Autolycus, _Winter's Tale_ IV, ii, 1, 15. 'When daffodils,' 'But shall I go mourn for that.' _Id._ sc. ii. end, 'Jog on' [see Appendix]; _Id._ sc. iii. 198, 'Whoop, do me no harm, good man' [Appendix]; _Id._ l. 219, 'Lawn, as white as driven snow'; _Id._ l. 262, Ballad of the 'Usurer's wife,' to a 'very doleful tune'; _Id._ l. 275, Ballad of a Fish, 'very pitiful'; _Id._ l. 297, A song _in three parts_, to the tune of 'Two maids wooing a man,' "Get you hence, for I must go"; _Id._ l. 319, Song, 'Will you buy any tape' (_cf._ The round by Jenkins, b. 1592, 'Come, pretty maidens,' see Rimbault's Rounds, Canons, and Catches).
