And wanting the right rule they take chalke for cheese, as the saying is.
Let some for honour hunt, and hoard the massy gold:
With her so I may live and die, my weal cannot be told.
Among the Muses Nine a tenth if Jove would make,
And to the Graces Three a fourth, her would Apollo take.
For many blessèd gifts, O happy, happy land!
Where Mars and Pallas strive to make their glory most to stand!
Yet, land, more is thy bliss that, in this cruel age,
A Venus’ imp thou hast brought forth, so steadfast and so sage.
