ACROSTICH.

A pollo hence! thy aid I do refuse; N o Nymph will I implore, nor yet no Muse; N o Nectar do I want, to write her praise;
G reat Subjects, without help our Fancies raise: I n thy sweet Face such charming Beauties be, L ess we at Angels wonder than at thee: B righter than Suns thy lovely Eyes appear, E ach Look doth a Majestick sweetness wear: R eign Sov'reign Queen of Beauty, Love, and VVit, T ill Death's cold hand shall teach thee to submit.
