AMong the nine, all Nymphes divine, that haunt the forked mountaine, If any will bring me a Quil, dipt in Castalias fountain Ile shew (in briefe) my joy and griefe, and her due praises render, To whom I would come if I could, but locks and bolts doe hinder. My joy, in that I had the fate, to chuse so rare a jewell, My griefe in this, that she (my blisse) is kept by kindred cruell, Out of my sight, which day and night doth pierce my heart so tender, Tis she to whom I faine would come, but locks and bolts doe hinder. She is a Lasse that doth surpasse, her neighbours round about her, Her worth is such, it grieves me much, to live so long without her: With strong desire in Cupids fire, my heart burnes to a cinder, I would possesse my happinesse but locks and bolts doe hinder. As Thisbe faire by Parents care from Pyramus was hidden, So she to come abroad from home is earnestly forbidden:
She dares not stir, nor I to her, so closely they have pennd her, She would come out I make noe doubt, but locks and bolts doe hinder. As Danae was ith Tower of brasse, inclosed by her Father, So she (my sweet) lest we should meet, is kept more closely rather: Yet as great Jove got to his Love, though walls did comprehend her, So I doe hope to have free scope, though locks and bolts doe hinder. Ith interim I must patiently expect that happy season, I dare not thinke that she will shrinke, for in truth I have no reason, I find that she is true to me, in that I must commend her, She would not be so long from me. but locks and bolts do hinder. It grieves my heart to think what smart (poore creature) she endureth, What meanes her kindred use to winne her heart, which she assureth Is fixed fast, while life doth last, no policie can bend her, To any course love hath such force, but locks and bolts doe hinder.

SHee hath (tis true to speake whats due) too great a marriage portion, This may I vow, for Cupid now, is bent unto extortion: I would therefore her friends were poore, or else in heart more tender, For poor or rich weed go through stitch, but locks and bolts doe hinder. Although my selfe want worldly pelfe, unto their expectation, Yet if I may the truth display, without any ostentation, My birth and parts and due deserts are not so weake and slender, But that I might earne my delight, though locks and bolts doe hinder. Were I a Prince of eminence, and shee a peasants daughter, Had she no more of learnings store, then what wise nature taught her, Her peerelesse face and inward grace, shewes in my heart such splendor, Shee mine should be, the like sayes she, but locks and bolts doe hinder. Tis not her pelfe but her sweet selfe, that I (in heart) doe covit Necessity let wealth supply, for nothing else I love it, Her onely love is that doth move my heart and makes it tender, I mourne in griefe without reliefe, for locks and bolts doe hinder. No ease of mind at all I find, but onely this assurance, That my deare wench will never flinch, though she be kept in durance,
Shee hath her share of woe and care for which I must commend her, On me she hath bestowd her faith, though locks and bolts doe hinder. Continue still in thy good will, thou Paragon of beauty, And I to thee as true will bee (so am I bound in duty) Though fortune frowne, yet the renowne of our affections tender, Abroad is flowne, we two are one, though locks and bolts doe hinder. With patience weell expect to feele, the fruit of all this sorrow, Though sorrow may indure this day, I shall have joy to morrow, In the meane while, I in exile will be thy true defender, And spread thy name, which is my claime, though locks and bolts doe hinder. Oh cruell fate, expire the date, of two deare Lovers trouble, If once our griefe doe finde reliefe, our joyes wil then be double And all our teares, our cares and feares, will to our names add splender Thy heart is mine, and mine is thine, though locks and bolts doe hinder.
