Not so great wonder and astonishment,Did the most chast Penelope possesse,To see her Lord, that was reported drent,And dead long since in dolorous distresse,Come home to her in piteous wretchednesse,After long trauell of full twenty yeares,That she knew not his fauours likelynesse,For many scarres and many hoary heares,But stood long staring on him, mongst vncertaine feares.
