power_n which_o have_v be_v ascribe_v to_o the_o ancient_a music_n 49._o sith_o every_o sphere_n they_o say_v the_o poet_n upon_o this_o occasion_n of_o music_n raise_v himself_o to_o consider_v the_o accord_n and_o harmony_n of_o the_o heaven_n borrow_v his_o discourse_n from_o the_o philosophy_n of_o plato_n whereof_o i_o shall_v endeavour_n here_o to_o set_v down_o the_o sum_n he_o say_v then_o that_o our_o music_n on_o earth_n be_v but_o a_o shadow_n of_o that_o superlative_a harmony_n which_o god_n have_v ordain_v the_o great_a cymbal_n as_o it_o be_v of_o heaven_n to_o make_v by_o their_o so_o swift_a and_o orderly_o move_v since_o unlikely_a it_o be_v but_o that_o the_o primovable_a and_o other_o sphere_n that_o whirle-about_a continual_o and_o have_v do_v so_o long_o shall_v make_v some_o noise_n answerable_a to_o their_o compass_n and_o cadence_n so_o proportional_a and_o rather_o may_v we_o presume_v they_o make_v a_o most_o excellent_a melody_n and_o far_o exceed_v our_o earthly_a music_n which_o from_o that_o heavenly_a borrow_v her_o perfection_n for_o so_o it_o be_v that_o god_n have_v make_v all_o thing_n in_o number_n weight_n and_o measure_n very_o likely_a it_o be_v that_o he_o keep_v a_o due_a proportion_n in_o the_o heaven_n and_o that_o more_o exact_o than_o on_o the_o earth_n because_o this_o be_v the_o low_a part_n of_o all_o for_o habitation_n of_o the_o mean_a creature_n when_o they_o as_o their_o english_a name_n signify_v be_v heaven-up_a on_o high_a to_o make_v a_o beautiful_a and_o glorious_a palace_n for_o th'all-creator_n to_o consider_v the_o matter_n yet_o more_o particular_o the_o platonike_n do_v say_v that_o god_n who_o be_v the_o voice_n sovereign_a and_o give_v voice_n sound_z and_o harmony_n to_o all_o thing_n high_a and_o low_a have_v in_o every_o sphere_n of_o heaven_n set_v a_o intelligence_n some_o call_v it_o school_n some_o angel_n some_o morion_n quicken_v by_o the_o primovable_a whereby_o the_o heaven_n be_v move_v to_o their_o cadence_n appoint_v so_o exact_o as_o no_o melody_n can_v be_v more_o please_v as_o for_o my_o own_o opinion_n hereof_o i_o think_v the_o platonic_n who_o say_v also_o that_o god_n still_o exercise_v geometry_n mean_v hereby_o to_o commend_v the_o perfection_n of_o mathematics_n and_o chief_o astronomy_n which_o be_v most_o excellent_a and_o certain_a of_o they_o all_o and_o because_o the_o mind_n be_v marvellous_o delight_v with_o musical_a proportion_n which_o no_o where_n can_v be_v find_v more_o perfect_a than_o in_o the_o heaven_n who_o so_o have_v the_o gift_n to_o understand_v they_o enjoy_v a_o contentment_n surpass_v all_o sweetness_n of_o earthly_a and_o eare-pleasing_a music_n now_o to_o the_o end_n this_o heavenly_a music_n may_v be_v the_o better_o conceive_v our_o poet_n here_o use_v a_o very_a choice_n and_o dainty_a comparison_n and_o say_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n give_v the_o heaven_n a_o musical_a motion_n which_o breed_v a_o sweet_a harmony_n among_o they_o even_o as_o a_o organist_n by_o due_a finger_v the_o key_n of_o his_o instrument_n stir_v up_o therein_o a_o melodious_a sound_n thus_o much_o by_o the_o way_n that_o the_o reader_n may_v thereby_o take_v occasion_n to_o stop_v his_o ear_n against_o the_o tempestuous_a broil_n and_o discord_n of_o this_o world_n and_o raise-up_a himself_o towards_o this_o heavenly_a concord_n or_o rather_o to_o fly-up_a thither_o with_o the_o wing_n of_o faith_n and_o learn_v in_o the_o company_n of_o saint_n and_o bless_a soul_n to_o understand_v those_o excellent_a song_n which_o be_v partly_o setdowne_a for_o we_o in_o diverse_a passage_n of_o the_o apocalyps_n 50._o now_o all_o these_o counter-note_n leave_v that_o heavenly_a music_n of_o the_o sphere_n he_o show_v now_o that_o we_o have_v a_o music_n also_o contain_v even_o in_o the_o humour_n of_o our_o body_n answerable_a to_o the_o four_o season_n of_o the_o year_n and_o the_o element_n our_o melancholy_n
