And Virgil not the last of the most Excellent Philosophers, 6. Aen. By Mr. I. O.

AT first the Heaven, & Earth, the liquid plain, The Moons Bright Globe, and stars Titanian, A spirit fed within, spread through the whole, And with the Huge heap mix'd infus'd a scrowle. Hence Man, & Beasts, & Birds derive their strain And Monsters Floating in the Marbled Main. These seeds have Fiery vigour, and a Birth Of Heavenly Race; but clogg'd with heavy Earth.
