Mor. Miſlike me not for my complexion,

The ſhadowed liuerie of the burniſht ſunne,

To whom I am a neighbour,and neere bred.

Bring me the faireſt creature North-ward borne,

Where Phœbus fire ſcarce thawes the yſicles,

And let vs make inciſion for your loue,

To proue whoſe blood is reddeſt,his or mine.
