SUPPLEMENT
To
Sir Philip Sydneys Arcadia.
IF a Male Soul by Transmigration canPass to a Female, and Her spirits Man,Then sure some Sparks of Sydneys Soul hath flownInto your Breast, which may in time be blownTo Flames; for 'tis the course of Enthean FireTo kindle by degrees, and Brains inspire:As Buds to Blossoms, Blossoms turn to Fruit,So Wits ask Time to ripen and recruit.
But yours gives Time the start, as All may seeIn this smooth Peece of Early Poesie:
Which like sparks of one flame may well aspire,If Phoebus please, to a Sydneyan Fire.
