IN glorius Greece there lies a firtile land Of antient time Achaia cald by name Within whose blessed borders brauelie stan Parnassus mont so much renound of fame Where Aganippes siluer streames doe spring About the which Ioues brain-bred daughters sing 2. Sending from thence that which in flamm's the brain Of brauest Spreitts and beautifies the mynd With end les rare inventions which obtain The name of wondre to the humane kynd Who in theire works of learned witt's divyne Make Learnings light in blakest darknes shyne 3.
