Susanna faire, sometime assaulted was,<br>
by two old men desiring their delight:<br>
whose false entent, they thought to bring to passe,<br>
If not by tender love, by force & might:<br>
to whom she said, if I your sute denye,<br>
you will mee falsely accuse, and make mee die.<br>
 
And if I graunt to that which you request,<br>
my chastitie shall then defloured bee,<br>
which is so deere to mee that I detest<br>
my lyfe, if it beerefted bee from mee:<br>
And rather would I dye of mine accord,<br>
ten thousand times, then once offend the Lord.<br>
