The Anathemata
Rite and Fore-time (continued)
to her sweetest dear
her fairest bosom have shown?1
David Jones notes
1 Cf. On a Time the Amorous Silvy, verse 2.
‘With that her fairest bosom showing,
Op’ning her lips, rich perfumes blowing,
She said, Now kiss me and be going,
My sweetest dear!’
John Attey, The First Booke of Ayres Of Four Parts, With Tableture for the Lute, 1622.

Perhaps this song was suggested to DJ’s mind by the previous reference to Calypso.
