Or, had I the goinge downe of ye Moone in greate reputacion? 27 Hath my hert medled priuely wt eny disceate? Or, dyd I euer kysse myne owne honde 28 (that were a wickednesse worthy to be punyshed, for then shulde I haue denyed the God that is aboue.) 29 Haue I euer reioysed at the hurte of myne enemy?
