praise that Poem thou hast writ on Beautie Should I give my opini●n truly I Compare thy book unto a Lottery Her`es Gold enough presented to our Eies Draw where we will we cannot miss a prize W. C. TO AMOREA The DEDICATION TO the fairest and divine Next unto the Sacred Nine To the Queen of love and beauty I do offer up my duty To the sweetest disposition That e're Lover did petition To the best and happ'est fortune Ever man did yet importune To the Lady of all hearts That pretend to noble parts To the altar of her eyes I my self doe sacrifice To her ever winning glances Here I doe present my fancies And to her all commanding look I doe dedicate my book To the Muses MUses I do invoke you to inspire And grant to me your great and holy aid That in my fancies so it may be said I favour win favour'd by your Atire Yet how or what I shall insist upon Or on what subject I should first begin Against the Muses sure it is a sin For me to speak or think of Hellicon My barren Muse unfit to entertain Or to assume the name of Poetrie Although I have presum'd a libertie My tired mind from Prose a while to wean But if the Muses grant their influence And will my naked fancy but protect All I shall do is wholy to project A way to make them a large recompence And all the praise that comes if any be Is due unto them for inspiring me Liberty lost AS yet I had not known the rage and force Of Love and Passion when I took my course Unto the Grove where I was us'd to go And passe the time wish it had ne're been so And being come unto the place where I Was wont sometimes to walk sometimes to lie Upon the flow'ry banks of Violet And Primrose interwoven as if set To counterfeit th' Elizium Tapistry Who could have thought danger should be so nigh So sweet a place when forthwith I began To read a while the story was of Pan The God of Rural Sports where Shepherds fell In love with Shapherdesses and to tell How some one for his love renounc'd a Crown And spent his time with Sheep upon a Down At which I smil'd that man should be so vain As from a Prince to turn a Shepherd Swain But note what sudden chance befell and see I laught 't is true 't was a sad laugh to me For having scan'd the vanity of love I heard a fluttering noise come from above When presently there lighted on a tree A winged-boy the fight was strange to me And wondering at the sight he forthwith took From underneath his wings a Table-book And threw it at my feet saying young-man Look well on this and read no more of Pan And saying so he took in hand his bow And shot at me I since have felt the blow At which he vanish'd from my sight when I One●y in love with curiosity Unclasp'd the Book I took it to be so But 't was a Picture-case the which did show A face which I had never seen till then Which made me to admire it's grace but when I 'de view'd it o're and o're I took the case And threw it from me but the new-seen face Had made so deep impression that I said Crying aloud I am betray'd betray'd And rising from the place I went away Toward my habitation but stay And see my sudden change I that before Could boast of freedome presently I tore My Book in pieces and began to cry Love Tharldome Madam Passion Liberty And like a man distracted I began To curse the Winged-boy and call on Pan But as I call'd I heard a silent noise Within the Wood and after that a voice Which came unto my ear I heard it say What have I seen what have I heard to day And looking round about me I espi'd A sight I have repented by the side Of a small running Brook a Nimph to lie Discoursing to her self of destinie I heard her say wish I had never been Abroad to day or wish I 'd never seen The Grove nor Picture but since it is so I will forget it all and so I 'le go And as she spake that word I saw her face The very same the new-found Picture case Presented me when I cry'd out 't is she She fled and only said 'tis he 't is he A Poem Lyrick AMorea why so Fair Fairer then the clearest ayre Brade no more that Auborn hayre If in love you do not share Beauty doth beget dispare Amorea Why so wise Far above a mortalls prise Drown no more our gloomy eyes But accept the Sacrifice Of a lovers dying cries Amorea why so High Why so full of Majesty Ah shut up that killing eye Which by looking can deny Only minde the marriage tye Amorea why so Blest How so happy in thy rest Still denying to invest In thy chast but marble brest Any lovers interest Amorea cannot be Fair but in her puretie Nor wise but in her Sanctitie Nor high to any but to me Nor Blest but in Eternitie Peace pratling Muse. A Song PEace pratling Muse do not declare Her great perfection Now she doth not lend an eare To thy affection No alas her thoughts are seated Too too high to be repeated Come wandring fancy come away Thou art neglected Honour bids thee not to stay If disrespected Never do her parts admire That thy ruine doth desire End hopeless love for ever end She doth not hearken Her resolutions all do bend Thy hopes to darken Let her never more delight thee If but once She seems to slight thee Away you vain and fond delights away be gon I nere intend on Hymens Rites To think upon Pardon mee I cannot vow it For my dear will not allow it Love at a Stand. 1.

That he is unstable hearken Love hath bred a deep confusion Your denyals often darken But not change my resolution To Amorea on his going to Sea 1. SEnd not a sigh to follow me behind That were unkind My totter'd Bark cannot eudure that wind The force of such a gale Will overset my saile 2. Drop not a bootless tear into the Sea That 's not the way Rather be still and unto Neptune pray For if you do but weep Your tears provoke the deep 3. Yet when I see too late the threatning storms Portending harms I then shall wish my self within thine armes Not only there to lie But only there to die His Inducement to Love 1. DOe not think it is your beauty That hath so engaged me
