TO HER GRACE THE Duchess of Newcastle, On her OBSERVATIONS upon EXPERIMENTAL PHILOSOPHY.
THis Book is Book of Books, and onely fits
Great searching Brains, and Quintessence of Wits;
For this will give you an Eternal Fame,
And last to all Posterity your Name:
You conquer Death, in a perpetual Life;
And make me famous too in such a Wife.
So I will Prophesie in spight of Fools,
When dead, then honour'd, and be read in Schools,
And Ipse dixit lost, not He, but She
Still cited in your strong Philosophy.
William Newcastle.
