Not illustrated. 1876 edition. Excerpt: ... trims them with a Rampicke bough, Washing them in the streames of siluer Ladon, To cleanse their skinnes from all corruption. XXVIII. Another while he wooes his Country Wench, (With Chaplet crownd and gaudy girlonds dight) Whose burning Lust her modest eye doth quench, Standing amazed at her heauenly sight, (Beauty doth rauish Sense with sweet Delight) Clearing Arcadia with a smoothed Browe, When Sun-bright smiles melt flakes of driuen snowe. XXIX.
