A nuptiall song, devoted to the Celebration of a Marriage betwixt Master Iames, and Mistresse An. W. An Acrostick.

Illustrious Himen, let this bridall feast Abound in plenty of all choice delights, Make it a lasting Iubilee, not least Ennobled by thee; all their tedious nights Shorten in pleasure; To their future dayes Adde length and light without eclipse or cloud, No unkind breath betwixt them tempest raise, No word be heard too silent, or too loud. And when the full time of her Issue growes, (Which may they prove as numerous as blest) Awake Lucina to her painfull throwes, And summon Juno to prepare her rest. Dispose their boord, their bed; that they may find Each in their age, as in their youth like kind.
