Pàgina 7 - Mong rural beauties I was one, Among the fields wild flowers are fair ; Some country swaia might me have won, And thought my beauty passing rare. " But, Leicester (or I much am wrong), Or 'tis not beauty lures thy vows ; Rather ambition's gilded crown Makes thee forget thy humble spouse.
