SONNET 4.
Comforth (deer Fraunce) from thy dark Cell of mone,Com (as new-born) from Warrs vnkindly quarrels:Turn tragick Cypresse to triumphant Laurels;Change black to green, and make thy Graue a Throne.Let Cores dwell vpon thy Desart Plain,Bacchus, and Dian, on thy Hills and Groues,Pomana in Gardens, Pan among thy Droues,Secure all Rhoades, and ope all Gates again.Resume (O Cities) Rule and Reverence;Revest (yee States) your Robes of dignity;Rise-vp (yee Ruines) in fair Battlements;Com, Muses, Pallas, Themis, Mercurie,Restore vs Lawes, Learning, and Arts, and Trade:And let our Age, a golden Age be made.
