Poet Analysis

First Line: AS DIANE HUNTED ON A DAY
Last Line: BUT DIANE BEASTS WITH CUPIDS DART.

As Diane hunted on a day,
She chaunst to come where Cupid lay,
His quiver by his head:
One of his shafts she stole away,
And one of hers did close convay
Into the others stead:
With that Love wounded my loves hart,
But Diane beasts with Cupids dart.
