To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Naked as their own innocence, And unembroyder'd from offence, They went, above poor riches, gay;On softer than the cignet's down, In beds they tumbled off their own: For each within the other lay. IX. Thus did they live: thus did they love, Repeating only joyes above, And angels were but with cloaths on, Which they would put off cheerfully, To bathe them in the Galaxie, Then gird them with the heavenly zone. X. Now, Chloris! miserably craveThe offer'd blisse you would not have, Which ev...ermore I must deny:Whilst ravish'd with these noble dreams, And crowned with mine own soft beams, Injoying of my self I lye. This and the succeeding stanza are omitted by Mr. Singerin his reprint. TO A LADY WITH CHILD THAT ASK'D AN OLD SHIRT. And why an honour'd ragged shirt, that shows, Like tatter'd ensigns, all its bodie's blows?Should it be swathed in a vest so dire, It were enough to set the child on fire;Dishevell'd queen[s] should strip them of their hair, And in it mantle the new rising heir:Nor do I know ought worth to wrap it in, Except my parchment upper-coat of skin;And then expect no end of its chast tears, That first was rowl'd in down, now furs of bears.
