COMMVNIS SENSVS, Memoria, Phantastes, Anamnestes, Heuresis as before, Olfactus in a garland of seuerall flowers, a page before him, bearing his target, his field vert, a ••ound ar∣gent, two Boyes with casting bottells, and two with censors with incense, another with a veluet cushion stuck with slowers, an other with a basket of hearbes, an other with a box of Oynt∣ment, Olfactus leads them about, and making obeysance presents them before the bench.

I. BOY.

Your onely way to make a good pomander, is this, take an ownce of the purest garden mould, clensed and stee∣ped seauen daies in change of motherlesse rose water, then take the best Labdanum, Benioine, both Storaxes, amber greece, and Ciuet, and mus ke, incorporate them together, and work them into what forme you please, this if your breath bee not to valiant, will make you smell as sweete as my Ladies dogge.

PHA.

This Boy it should seeme represents Odor, hee is so perfect a persumer.

ODOR.

I do my Lord, and haue at my command, The smell of flowers, and Odoriferous drugs, Of oyntments sweete, and excellent perfumes, And Court-like waters, which if once you smell, You in your heart would wish as I suppose: That all your Body were transsformed to Nose.

PHA.

Olfactus of all the Senses, your obiects haue the worst luck, they are alwaies iarring with their contraries, for none can weare Ciuet, but they are suspected of a proper badde sent, where the prouerbe springs, hee smelleth best, that doth of nothing smell.
