[00:05.89] She lay all naked in her bed,
[00:08.77] And I myself lay by;
[00:11.19] No veil but curtains about her spread,
[00:14.74] No covering but I.
[00:18.02] Her head upon her shoulder seeks
[00:19.99] To hang in careless wise,
[00:21.93] And full of blushes were her cheeks,
[00:24.76] And of wishes were her eyes.
[00:28.19] Her blood still fresh into her face,
[00:30.61] As on a message came,
[00:32.43] To say that in another place
[00:34.51] It meant another game.
[00:37.38] Her cherry lip moist, plump and fair,
[00:40.21] Millions of kisses crown,
[00:42.83] Which ripe and uncropt dangled there,
[00:45.97] And weighed the branches down.
[00:48.99] Her breasts, that welled so plump and high
[00:52.78] Bread pleasant pain in me.
[00:55.76] For all the world I do defy
[00:57.53] The like felicity;
[00:59.40] Her thighs and belly, soft and fair,
[01:02.43] To me were only shown:
[01:04.94] To have seen such meat, and not to eat,
[01:09.01] Would anger any stone.
[01:12.65] Her knees lay upward gently bent,
[01:15.98] And all lay hollow under,
[01:18.66] As if on easy terms, they meant
[01:20.83] To fall unforced asunder;
[01:24.95] Just so the Cyprian Queen did lie,
[01:27.52] Expecting in her bower,
[01:29.58] When too long stay had kept the boy
[01:31.97] Beyond his promised hour.
[01:34.84] "Dull clown," quoth she, "Why dost delay
[01:38.38] Such proffered bliss to take?
[01:41.40] Canst thou find out no other way
[01:43.47] Similitudes to make?"
[01:46.13] Mad with delight I, thundering,
[01:48.04] Throw my arms about her,
[01:51.25] But pox upon't 'twas but a dream.
[01:56.14] And so I lay without her.
[01:58.65]
