obscure_a to_o clarimonds_n question_n why_o he_o desire_v not_o to_o know_v what_o it_o be_v and_o how_o hyanta_n shall_v speak_v of_o such_o thing_n be_v a_o pagan_a i_o answer_v that_o francus_n pass_v it_o by_o as_o a_o thing_n unknown_a that_o touch_v he_o not_o and_o as_o for_o hyanta_n she_o be_v so_o possess_v by_o the_o spirit_n that_o make_v she_o speak_v that_o she_o know_v not_o what_o she_o have_v say_v herself_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o ronsard_n will_v have_v give_v we_o this_o satisfaction_n have_v he_o continue_v his_o work_n as_o for_o the_o design_n he_o have_v to_o bring_v francus_n into_o the_o country_n of_o the_o gaul_n there_o to_o build_v a_o city_n he_o be_v very_o unjust_o blame_v since_o that_o be_v a_o poet_n he_o be_v permit_v to_o feign_v what_o he_o please_v beside_o that_o his_o fiction_n be_v not_o at_o such_o a_o distance_n from_o the_o truth_n but_o it_o have_v the_o warrant_n of_o most_o of_o our_o historian_n when_o clarimond_n have_v censure_v ronsard_n to_o who_o so_o many_o poet_n of_o his_o time_n give_v place_n he_o can_v not_o but_o contemn_v all_o the_o rest_n yet_o have_v he_o not_o presume_v to_o sift_v their_o work_n lest_o it_o will_v have_v be_v too_o much_o pain_n for_o it_o must_v be_v conceive_v it_o can_v be_v no_o small_a disquisition_n to_o search_v out_o reason_n so_o destructive_a to_o the_o common_a opinion_n he_o therefore_o general_o condemn_v they_o all_o because_o they_o have_v quote_v the_o ancient_a fable_n it_o must_v not_o be_v believe_v in_o his_o opinion_n that_o there_o can_v be_v any_o good_a mythology_n whereas_o we_o have_v such_o abundance_n of_o most_o excellent_a one_o that_o i_o know_v not_o how_o he_o have_v be_v so_o impudent_a as_o to_o say_v so_o i_o pass_v by_o all_o his_o proof_n as_o be_v of_o no_o weight_n i_o know_v my_o judge_n have_v read_v book_n enough_o to_o have_v learn_v the_o contrary_a to_o what_o he_o have_v allege_v but_o it_o be_v to_o much_o purpose_n for_o i_o to_o be_v angry_a with_o a_o man_n who_o can_v be_v reconcile_v to_o the_o poetry_n of_o the_o present_a age_n be_v it_o possible_a that_o so_o many_o excellent_a wit_n as_o be_v at_o the_o court_n can_v never_o do_v any_o thing_n to_o satisfy_v he_o their_o sweet_a song_n be_v they_o not_o able_a to_o charm_v he_o and_o make_v he_o change_v his_o opinion_n but_o here_o he_o come_v to_o the_o second_o part_n of_o his_o oration_n and_o fall_v foul_a upon_o the_o book_n he_o call_v romance_n he_o have_v deal_v most_o unworthy_o by_o the_o aethiopian_a history_n and_o not_o find_v any_o thing_n in_o that_o piece_n deserve_v just_a censure_n he_o quarrel_v with_o little_a formality_n he_o think_v it_o not_o fit_v that_o pagan_n shall_v regard_v their_o dream_n who_o be_v so_o full_a of_o superstition_n that_o natural_a impatience_n that_o gnemon_n be_v in_o to_o know_v the_o end_n of_o a_o history_n he_o will_v make_v a_o strange_a incongruity_n and_o not_o consider_v that_o the_o world_n be_v furnish_v with_o coward_n as_o well_o as_o stout_a man_n he_o fall_v out_o with_o the_o author_n for_o make_v that_o young_a man_n fearful_a though_o theagenes_n have_v discover_v his_o generosity_n in_o all_o action_n whatsoever_o yet_o he_o excuse_v he_o not_o and_o think_v he_o have_v not_o do_v enough_o he_o will_v also_o persuade_v we_o that_o the_o love_n of_o daphnis_n and_o cloe_n be_v impertinent_a though_o they_o excel_v in_o a_o incomparable_a naturalness_n and_o there_o he_o begin_v his_o controversy_n with_o pastoral_n against_o which_o all_o he_o can_v say_v be_v that_o the_o book_n which_o treat_v of_o that_o subject_n imitate_v one_o another_o this_o make_v nothing_o against_o they_o if_o so_o be_v they_o be_v good_a and_o what_o he_o have_v allege_v against_o diana_n of_o montemajor_n be_v of_o no_o great_a weight_n though_o the_o order_n of_o it_o shall_v be_v disturb_v yet_o be_v the_o thing_n no_o less_o pleasant_a and_o as_o for_o the_o fable_n and_o enchantment_n in_o it_o all_o be_v pardonable_a as_o for_o the_o pastoral_n of_o julietta_n i_o think_v myself_o the_o more_o oblige_v to_o vindicate_v that_o book_n as_o be_v the_o first_o be_v write_v in_o france_n of_o that_o kind_n the_o happy_a condition_n of_o a_o shepherd_n to_o which_o heaven_n have_v call_v i_o engage_v i_o to_o do_v it_o to_o answer_v therefore_o what_o clarimond_n have_v say_v of_o the_o work_n of_o ollenix_n of_o montsacre_n i_o say_v that_o if_o that_o author_n mention_n not_o the_o abode_n of_o his_o shepherd_n and_o other_o little_a particular_n it_o be_v because_o they_o be_v of_o no_o concernment_n that_o he_o make_v the_o maid_n court_v the_o man_n it_o be_v only_a to_o represent_v that_o they_o live_v as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o golden_a age_n during_o which_o the_o law_n of_o honour_n be_v not_o invent_v and_o if_o in_o relate_v history_n they_o quote_v profane_a and_o sacred_a author_n and_o mention_v thing_n happen_v in_o our_o time_n the_o reason_n be_v that_o all_o be_v fiction_n and_o it_o be_v grant_v it_o be_v the_o author_n that_o speak_v all_o through_o he_o have_v take_v the_o liberty_n to_o accommodate_v thing_n as_o well_o to_o this_o age_n as_o to_o the_o age_n past_a for_o the_o great_a delight_n of_o the_o reader_n he_o be_v not_o therefore_o to_o be_v censure_v for_o that_o and_o as_o for_o sidney_n arcadia_n since_o it_o have_v cross_v the_o sea_n to_o come_v and_o see_v we_o i_o be_o sorry_a clarimond_n receive_v it_o with_o such_o poor_a compliment_n if_o he_o hear_v nothing_o of_o the_o love_n of_o strephon_n and_o clavis_fw-la he_o must_v not_o quarrel_v with_o the_o author_n who_o have_v make_v his_o book_n one_o of_o the_o most_o excellent_a in_o the_o world_n there_o be_v discourse_n of_o love_n and_o discourse_n of_o state_n so_o generous_a and_o pleasant_a that_o i_o shall_v never_o be_v weary_a to_o read_v they_o i_o shall_v say_v much_o in_o his_o commendation_n be_v i_o not_o in_o haste_n to_o speak_v of_o astraea_n which_o clarimond_n bring_v in_o next_o and_o i_o be_o very_o glad_a to_o find_v that_o book_n general_o esteem_v which_o shall_v oblige_v he_o to_o esteem_v it_o also_o if_o instead_o of_o the_o title_n of_o astraea_n it_o have_v bear_v that_o of_o galathea_n or_o diana_n he_o will_v have_v make_v the_o same_o complaint_n he_o do_v he_o will_v have_v ask_v why_o that_o title_n more_o than_o another_o but_o do_v he_o not_o consider_v that_o the_o book_n begin_v with_o the_o love_n of_o astraea_n and_o celadon_n and_o that_o most_o of_o the_o other_o history_n be_v but_o circumstance_n so_o that_o the_o design_n be_v very_o excellent_o take_v i_o must_v also_o tell_v clarimond_n that_o hylas_n may_v be_v inconstant_a and_o yet_o not_o be_v mad_a as_o he_o suppose_v and_o that_o there_o be_v in_o these_o day_n a_o many_o more_o inconstant_a than_o he_o as_o for_o sylvander_n if_o his_o philosophy_n be_v platonic_a it_o be_v so_o much_o the_o better_a since_o it_o be_v that_o philosopher_n have_v teach_v we_o to_o love_v divine_o if_o it_o be_v allege_v that_o in_o the_o time_n of_o meroveus_n and_o childerick_n there_o
