And those high Notions, and Idea's too,
Which but her self, no Ladies ever knew.
Whence she's the chiefest Ornament and Grace
O'th' times, and of her Sex. Hayle sacred place,
To which the world in after-times shall come
As unto Homers Shrine, or Virgils Tomb;
Honouring the Walls wherein she made aboad,
The air she breath'd, & ground whereon she trod.
So Fame rewards the Arts, and so agen
The Arts reward all those who honour them;
Whilst those in any other things do trust,
Shall after death lye in forgotten dust.
