Upon Princess Elizabeth born the Night before New-Year's Day.

AStrologers say, Venus, the self same Star
Is both our Hesperus and Lucifer;
The Antitype, this Venus makes it true,
She shuts the old Year, and begins the new.
Her Brother with a Star at Noon was born,
She like a Star both of the Eve and Morn.
Count o'er the Stars, fair Queen, in Babes, and vie
With every Year a new Epiphany.
