In Praise of Two

Anonymous


FAUSTINA 1 hath the fairer face,
And Phyllida the feater grace;
Both have mine eyes enriched:
This sings full sweetly with her voice;
Her fingers make as sweet a noise:	5
Both have mine ears bewitched.
Ah me! sith Fates have so provided,
My heart, alas, must be divided.
