His suite she striues but gladly would be conquerde of the foe A Woman to the Northeast winde may well compared bée That gathers vp the cloud and straight doth force the same to flée Abrode by

that in these Women are But homely they by nature are by Arte they waxen braue By day 'tis all the worke they doe their dreames thereof they haue They pluck off haires where néede requires they wash they paint sléeke They cham●er purle anoint and smooth and practise other léeke Deceyte they are from toppe to toe all craft and trifling toyes All stufft with venome rancke and vile that gazers on
