To see me laugh; and yet, having her locks
But partly gathered up, she had recourse

To let herself remain thus partly dressed,
Seeing how negligence became her too.

That nymphs and shepherdesses formerly
Were not thus knowing, yet reserved. I was not
In my own youth. The world methinks, grows old,
And growing old, grows sad.
