A PANEGYRE.
HEau'n now not striues, alone, our brests to fill With Ioyes: but vrgeth his full fauors still. Againe, the Glory of our Westerne world Vnfolds himselfe: and from his Eies are hoorl'd, (To day) a thousand radiant lights, that streame To euery nooke, and angle of his realme. His former raies, did only cleare the skie; But these his searching beames are cast, to prie Into those darke, and deepe concealed vaults, Where men commit black incest with their faults; And snore supinely in the stall of Sinne: Where Murder, Rapine, Lust, do sit within Carow••ing humane blood, in iron bowles, And make their Den the slaughter house of soules: From whose foule reeking cauernes first arise Those dampes, that so offend all good mens eies; And would (if not dispers'd) infect the Crowne, And in their vapor her bright Mettall drowne. To this so cleare, and sanctified an end, I saw, when reuerend TH••MIS did descend Vpon his state; let downe in that rich chaine, That fastneth heauenly power to earthly raigne: Beside her, stoup't on either hand, a Mayd, Faire DICE, and EVNOMIA; who were said To be her daughters: and but faintly knowne On Earth, till now, they came to grace his throne.Page [unnumbered]
