Susanna fair some time assaulted<br>
was by two old men,<br>
desiring their delight,<br>
which  lewd intent<br>
they thought to bring to pass,<br>
if not by tender love,<br>
by force and might ,<br>
tho whom she said,<br>
if I your suit deny,<br>
you will me falsely accuse<br>
and make me die.<br>
And if I grant to that<br>
which you request,<br>
my chastity shall then
deflowered be<br>
which is so dear to me,<br>
that I detest my life,<br>
if it berefted be from me,<br>
and rather would I die<br>
of mine accord,<br>
ten thousand times<br>
than once offend our Lord.<br>
