Henry Howard - From Tuscan Came My Lady`s Worthy RaceHenry Howard - From Tuscan Came My Lady`s Worthy Race
Work rating: Low


From Tuscan came my lady`s worthy race;     Fair Florence was sometime her ancient seat.     The western isle whose pleasant shore doth face     Wild Camber`s cliffs, did give her lively heat.     Foster`d she was with milk of Irish breast;     Her sire an earl, her dame of princes` blood.     From tender years in Britain she doth rest     With a king`s child, where she tastes ghostly food.     Hunsdon did first present her to mine eyen;   Bright is her hue, and Geraldine she hight;   Hampton me taught to wish her first for mine;   And Windsor, alas, doth chase me from her sight.   Beauty her mate, her virtues from above:   Happy is he that may obtain her love.
