Never.

The sun shall change his course and find new pathes To drive his chariot in. The loadstone leave His faith unto the North. The vine withdraw Those strict embraces that infold the elme, In her kind armes, ere, &c. First shady groves shall on the b••llowes grow, And sea weeds on the tops of mountains show Their flimy chires. Heavens fi••es shall first fall darkned from their spheare, Grave night, the light weed of the day shall wear. Fresh streams shall chace the sea, tough plowes shall tear Their fishie bottome, &c. Before. Sooner fleet minutes shall back rescued be. Soonner expect the harvest from the sand. Sooner every star May in his motion grow irregular, The sun forget to give his welcome flame Unto the teeming earth. December sooner shall see primrose grow; And swift-pac't rivers in soft murmures flow, No more shall mead be deckt with flowers, Nor sweetnesse dwell in rosie bowers, Nor early buds on branches spring, Nor warbling birds delight to sing. Nor April violets paint the grove. The fish shall in the Ocean burne, And fountains sweet, shall bitter tu••ne. The humble oake no flood shall know. Black Lethe shall oblivion leave. Love shall his bow and shaft lay by, And Venus doves wa••t wings to fly, The sun refuse to shew his light, And day shall then be turn'd to night, And in that night no star appeare.

No joy above in heaven shall dwell, Nor pain torment poor souls in hell, Can earth forget her burthen and ascend? O•• can aspiring flames be taught to tend To earth? Then &c. Can hills forget their ponderous bulks and fly Like wandering Aromes in the empty skie? Or can the heavens, grown idle, not fulfill Their certain revolutions but stand still, And leave their constant motion to the wind T'inherit? Then &c. Sooner the sun and stars shall shine together. Sooner the wolfe make peace with tender lambes. Sooner shall rigid Boreas first take wing At Nilus head, and boisterous Auster spring From th' icie floods of Izland—Then &c. You may sooner part the billowes of the sea, And put a bar between their fellowship. Sooner shut Old time into a den, and stay his motion, Wash off the swift houres from his downy wing, Or steal eternity to stop his glasse. Sooner the pibbles, on the hungry beach, Shall ••illop stars, and the mutinous winds, Throw the proud Cedars up against the sun. When Poe shall wash the topps of Matine hill, Or the sea swallow lofty Apennine, And strange eff••cts of love, new monsters joyne, That Tygers may from hindes seeke lusts delight, And the meeke dove is troden by the kite, When flocks the Lyons friendship entertain, And wanton goats affect the brackish main. Then &c. Sooner the mountains shall want shady trees, Sooner the ships shall not ••aile on the seas, And rivers make recourse unto their springs, The rivers shall recoile unto their springs, The sun shall from the west his course begin, The earth shall first with shining stars be fill'd, The skies unto the furrowing plough shall yeild, The water shall send forth a smoaking flame, The fi••r shall yeild water back again, First shall the birds that welcome in the spring,

All mute and dumbe; for ever cease to sing, The summer Ants leave their industrious pain, And from their full mouthes cast their loading grain. The swift Maenalian hounds that chasing are, Shall frighted run back from the trembling ••••are. First nature shall become preposterous. No element shall hold his constant seat, Heaven shall be earth, and earth Joves star••y house, Fier shall be cold, and water shall give hea, Summer shall give a snowie livery Unto the ground, and does shalllyons fright, Through aire the crowes whiter than snow shall fly, And the daies brightnesse turne into the night, The fish shall not inhabit in the flood, And silver swans shall take a jetty die, The cha••ing boare shall not then haunt the wood, With wings then oxen shall divide the skie, Marble shall then the wax in softnesse passe, The chicken then shall prey upon the kite, In the vast welkin shall the staggs se••ke grasse, The dog forget Arcadian wolves to bite, Stars shall enamel earth; and from the tree No leaves shall dangle, eagles court the dove, The highest moun••ains then shall levell'd be, And the fierce griffons shall the horses lov••. V. Famous. Ever Incredible, Impossible.

New years day,

The birth and infant of the year. That day which is the prime To the slow-gliding moneths, when every eye Wea••s Symptomes of a sober jolity, And every hand is ready to present Affection in a real complement. When even the peasant thinks that he Cannot without a grosse absurdity, Be that day frugal, and not spare his friend Some gift to shew his love finds not an end With the deceased year. When every street Sounds with the trampling of presenters feet. When as the lowest fortune will not fear To give a welcome to the new come year

With some proportioned gift. The day old time doth turne his annual glasse.

New.

Infant, blooming, budding. That counts not many years. Scarce yet hath seen the publick light.

Newes.

Whose itching ears even smart to know the newes. Fames plumed birth.

Sad Newes. v. Harsh sounding.

Sounds like a mandrake torne out of the earth. That living mortals hearing it run mad. K••lling, stabbing, wounding accents.

Good Newes. v. Sweet sounding.

The sweetest tidings, and the greatest wonder As ever broke in sunder, the lips of panting fame. Which to hear, There's none but would wish all his body eare. The happiest newes that ever beg'd an eare.

Night.

The nights black wings mask up the light, The obscure mantle of the night. The shady gloome. Whose sable wing In gloomy darknesse husheth every thing. Under her sable pinions folds the world, When Cynthia darts her borrowed raies, The lights black curtain, cypresse. The gloomy night With sable curtains had beclouded all. Daies elder sister. Best patronesse of griefe. Heavens surrounding steeds Quell their proud courage, turne their fainting heads Into the lower hemispheare to coole Their flaming nostrills in the westerne poole. When Morpheus with his leaden keyes Locks up the sences. Night sheds her poppy on the weary world, When leaden sleepe hath seald up all mens eyes. The time when mortals take their soft repose. The friend to secrets. The face of heaven studded with stars. The nurse of cares her curtains drawes. Nights heavie charmes

••••ad clos'd all eyes. When sleepe bestowes On men and on their cares a sweet repose. Night spangs the skie with stars. Light ••ies in the shady coverture of night. That obscure mantle that invelopes ••ight, When silent darknesse doth invite Our eyes to slumber. When night hath spread her dusky dampe. The sober suited matron. Daies sable herse. The ebon box wherein heaven puts her light. ••haebe's black coachman. Deceased lights black coffin. The black browd lady. Black ey'd empresse. That Ethiopian Queen. Negro Queen. S••art night her brows exalts with stars impal'd. The gloomy night on light extends her shades. The winter of the day. The earth borne shades had clos'd the world with night. The nights dew dropping shadowes hide The face of earth: The maske of day. Night laies her sable mace on earth. Sols glorious light Dives to the sea, and brings up drowsie night. The peaceful night treads busie day under her sable feet. The p••ndant spangles Beam from the skie, and drowsie sleepe entangles The eyes of mortals. Nights moist shades the earth doth hide, And Cy••••hi•• in her golden ch••••iot rides, Dark night rusht down, and hid the face of earth With her spread sable pinions— Heavens eye doth gild the seas In his days journey to th' Antipodes. When heaven that was a Cyclops late before, Becomes an Argus. Over the pole, night her thick mantle throwes. The time the jetty charioter Hu••les her black mantle ore our Hemispheare. Mother of sleeps and feares. That with her sable mantle friendly covers The sweet stollen sports of joyful meeting lovers.

The day is sunke in hideous night, The black-ey'd night her ••able mantlehurld, And in thick vapours muffled up the world. Which in dull darknesse canopies the light. When nights black muffler hoodeth up the skies. The sun doth leave us to our rest, And Cynthia hath her brothers place possest. Now had the glorious sun tane up his Inne, And all the lamps of heaven englightned been. Virgins, now day is fled, Make poo••e their garments t'enrich their bed. Which in a carre of Jet, By steeds of iron gray, wh••ch mainly sweat, Moist drops on all the world, drawn through the skie. When we may The bright Cel••stial spheare sorvey, So rich in j••wels hung, that night appears Like to an Ae••hiope bride. Now in the sea bright sol had hid his head, And stars appear'd, the moone her shadowes spread, Nights silent reign had ••ob'd the world of light, To lend in lieu a greater benefit. Repose and sleepe; when every mortal brest, Whom care, or grief permitted took their rest, Now nights black mantle had the earth orespread, And all the ••••st of stars in P••aebus stead, Though with lesse light ado••n'd the spangled skie. The night did ••rowning rise Into her throne, and from her humerous breasts, Visions and dreams lay sucking, all mens rests Fell like the mists of d••ath upon their eyes. Loves Mart of k••sses. Venus day. Soft rest of cares. Night laies her velvet hand upon daies face. The aire with sparks of living fire is spangled, And night deep drencht in misty Acheron, Heav'd up her head, and halfe the world upon, B••eath'd darknesse forth. The skie appear'd in sable mourning dresse, The ebon night brought in a coach of jet, Drawn by her sable feathered steeds, ravens. When Morpheus ••e••geant of the night Had laid his mace upon the dying light.

And with his listlesse limbes had closely spread, The sable curtains of his drowsie bed. Darknesse had stain'd, The Chrystall brow of day, and gloomy night Had spoil'd and rifled heaven of all his light. Grim night lookt forth with grizly countenance, Her smoakie breath in duskie clouds doth fly ••rom her pale lips, and darkned heavens bright glance, ••••evailing ore the earth and azure skie. When as the un••versal shade, Of th' unspangled heaven and earth had made An utter darknesse. When as the heavens by the suns teame untrod, Hath took no print of the approaching light, And al the spangled host keep watch in squadrons bright. Her body is confin'd Within a coleblack mantle thorough lin'd With sable surres, her tresses were of hiew, Like Ebony, on which a pearly dew Hung like a spiders web, her face did shroud Aswarth complexion, underneath a cloud Of black curld cypresse, on her head she wore A crown of burnisht gold, b••shaded ore Wi••h fogs and ro••y mists, her hand did bear A scepter, and a sable Hemispheare. Death resembling shades of night Had drawn their misty curtains twixt the light, And every darkned eye. Sols horses now eat their Ambrosia Within the westerne meads, deposed day Surrenders up her throne, and yeilds her right Unto her Negro sister.—In the raging sea, The sun is drown'd, and with him falls the day, When Cynthia whips her drowsie teame. When the wings of night fans sleep on mortals. Now was ou•• heavenly vault deprived of the light With suns depart, and now the darknesse of the night Did light those beamy stars, which greater light did d••rk, Now each thing that enjoy'd that fiery quickning spark, Which life is call'd, were mov'd their spirits to repose, And wanting use of eyes▪ their eyes began to close. A silence sweet each place with one consent embra••'••

A musick sweet to one in careful musing plac't, And mother earth now clad in mourning weeds did breath A dull desi••e to kisse the image of our death. Earth thing with her black mantle night doth sconce, Saving the glow-worme, which would courteous be Of that small light: of watching shepheards see. The welkin had full niggardly inclos'd In coff••r of dim clouds his silver groates. When Phaebe doth behold Her silver visage in the watry glasse, Decking with liquid pearl the bladed grasse. Night that from eyes their busie function takes The ear more quick of apprehension makes, Wherein it doth impaire the seeing sence But paies the hearing double recompence. Borne by swift dragons in an Ebon coach. The creeping murmure, and the poring dark, Fills the wide vessel of the universe. The Churchyards yawne, and hell it selfe breaths out Contagion to this world, When the Diurnal Charirioter had set His fierie brasse-hoo••'d coursers to their meat, And o'r his golden glistering locks had spread The jetty hangings of his sable bed. Lights sable Coffin buries up the day, The night close mou••ner for the dying light, Bedews her cheeks with tears, When the wearied Sun is gone to rest, And darknesse made the worlds unwelcome guest, The sable mantle of the silent night, Shut from the world the ever joysome light. Care fl••d away, and softest slumbers please To leave the Court for lowly Cottages: Now when the night her sable wings had spread, And sleep his dew on pensive mortals shed, When visions in their a••rie shapes appear. Wild boars fo••sake their dens••on woody hills, And sleightfull otters left the purling rills; Rooks to their nests in high woods now were flung, And with their spread wings shield their naked young, When thieves from thickets to the crosse way stirre, And terrour frights the lonely passenger.

••en nought was heard, but now and then the howl ••f some v••le Curre, or whooping of the owl. ••w the hungry lion roars, ••d the wolf beholds the Moon, ••hilst the heavy Plow-man snores, •• with weary task foredon, •• the wasted brands do glow. ••ile the scre••ch owl screeching loud, ••s the wretch that lies in woe, •• remembrance of a shrowd.

V. Moon. Stars. Sleep, Midnight.

••ow it is the time of night, ••t the graves all gaping wide, ••y one lets forth hi•• spright, ••n the Church yard paths to glide, ••ow o'•• one half of the world, ••chie darknesse round is hurl'd. ••a••ures seem dead, and wicked dreams abuse ••he curtain'd sleep, now witchcraft celebrates ••ale Heca••'s offerings, ••he owl is abroad, the Bat and the Toad, •• And so is the Cat a Mountain, ••he Ant and the Mole ••it both in an hole, And the frog peeps out of the fountain, ••imes dead low water, when all minds devest To morrows businesse. The noon of night. When stars begin to stoop. T••e stars had reach'd their middle height, When Titans ray G••ves the Antipodes their noon of day, When morrals have Their Bu••ial in their voluntary grave. Bed. ••y this the feathered Bellman of the night, ••nt ••orth his midnight summons to invite ••ll eyes to slumber. When far spent night perswades each mortall eye, To whom nor art nor nature gran••eth light, To lay his then mark wanting shafts of sight. Clos'd with their quivers in sleeps armour••e. The noontide of th' Antipodes. The deep of night is crept upon our talk.

The dead wast of the night. The aged night is now grown gray. The midnight bell Doth with his iron tongue, and braz••n mouth Sound on unto the drowsie race of death. The gaudy day Is crept into the bosome of the sea; And now loud houling wolves aro••se the Jades That drag the Tragick melancholy night Who with their drowsie, slow, and flagging wings Clip dead means bones, and from their misty jawes Breath foule contagious darknesse in the aire. The deepest silence of the night, And Luna in her crescent shined bright. Now 'twas still night, and weary limbes at ease, Slept sweetly, woods were husht and calme the seas. When the still night did gently kisse the trees, And they did make no noise. The moone-light sweetly sleeps upon the bankes.

Nightingale.

Making a thorne her prick-song booke. Woods musicks king. The forrest harmelesse Syren. Inchanting Syrens of the aire. Warbling Philomel. The forrest Lutinist. The yearly Augut of the spring.

Nilus.

Whose streams a thousand waies, In winding tracks, and wanton turnings plaies On Aegypts fertile brest. Which with his amorous folding armes doth seeme T'embrace smal ••slands, whilst his silver stream From several channels of it selfe doth meete, And oft it self with wanton kisses greet. The seven horn'd river, paper-bearing stream, Whose fruitful inundation, Aegipt with plenty crownes. The streams of Nile Augmented by the weeping Crocodile.

Nimble. v. Swift.

So free from dregs of earth, that you would think H••s body were assum'd and did disguise Some one of the celestial Hierarchies. Their very first matter was quicksands.

Nimble as fiery elves. •• if their veins ran with quick-silver, ••pricious spirits, a vein of Mercury in his feet, ••ike subtle snakes, can almost skip out of his skin, That can rise, ••nd stoop almost together like an arrow, ••oot through the air as nimbly as a star. 〈◊〉〈◊〉 short as doth a swallow and be here, ••nd there, and here, and yonder, all at once, Born Like Iphichus upon the tops of corn, Nimble as winged hours, ••o dance and caper o'r the ••ops of flowers, And ride the sun-beams.

Niobe.

VVhom all might call, The happiest mother that yet ever brought Life unto light, had not he•• self so thought, Of late env••'d by those That were her friends, now pitied by her foes. The weeping marble. Never fate P••oduc'd a greater Monument Of slipperie heights and prides descent. A sep••lchre without a body. A body without a sepulcher, •• Body and sepulcher unto her self. She that was made to know The utmost heavenly smiles or frowns could do.

Noah's Ark.

Holy Janus soveraign boa••, Where Churches and all Monarchies did float, T••at swimming Colledge, and free hospitall Of all Mankind that cage and vivarie Of fowls and beasts, in whose womb destiny ••s and our latest nephews did install. The floating park, That did all kinds and shapes imbark. The sacred A••go.

Noon.

What time the Sun doth dine, The highest tide and flow of light. The summer of the day, The head-strong day, The parted day in equall ballance held.

And now the Sunne, the shortest shadows made, Now East and West the equall sun partakes, Now Phoebus with inflaming eye doth view The crannied earth. Now Titan bore his equall distant sight, Betwixt foregoing and ensuing ligh••. When Phoebus from the height of all the skie Beholds the East and West with equall eye. When as the high pitch'd Sun invades The Earth with hottest beams and shortest shades, Now he that guides the Chariot of the sun, On his Ecliptick circle had so run, That his brasse-hoof'd fire-breathing horses wan The stately height of the Meridian, By this bright Phoebus with redoubled glory, Had half way mounted to the highest story Of his Olympick Palace. Now labouring men seeing the Sun decline, Take out their bags and sit them down to dine, The Sun was in the middle way, And had o'rcome the one half of the day. When as the Sun up to the South aspires, And seats himself upon dayes glorious T••rone, Ascending through heavens brightest azure vault, The Sun is now upon the highest hill Of his dayes journey, Now the Mid day had made the shadows short, The Evening and the Morn of equall port. The Rosie Morn resigns her light, And milder glory to the Noon.

North.

The frozen pole, where winter which no spring can ••ase, With blasting cold doth glaze the S••ythian seas. The frozen wain. The farthest shore, Washt by the Northern Ocean, Those whom dayes bright flame, S••arce warms—Their Northe••n Pole, VVhere a perpetuall winter binds the ground, And glazeth up the floods, VVhere Phoebus fire scarce thaws the Isickles. Cold Champions where No summer warmth the tree doth chear

〈◊〉〈◊〉 Climates which a sullen air infest, 〈◊〉〈◊〉 where Galistho drives her froz••n team. ••••here raigns the greater and the lesser Bear, ••••hich from their Poles view all things which they please, 〈◊〉〈◊〉 never set beneath the western seas, 〈◊〉〈◊〉 the Pole of the Parrhasian Maid, 〈◊〉〈◊〉 region under th' Erimanthian Bear.

V. Cold. Boreas. Frost. Nose.

The double doored port. ••••here Zephyrus delights to sport. 〈◊〉〈◊〉 Arbitrator betwixt the eyes lest they should 〈◊〉〈◊〉 together by th' ears. Stands in bucklers place, To take the blows for all the face.

Noyse.

••••lted voices through the Palace rung, Confused noise did smite the gilded sta••s, ••••ppl••usive murmures with a flood of air, 〈◊〉〈◊〉 justling waves against the rocks. 〈◊〉〈◊〉 noise made Mars wounded by Diomede, Throwing about their rude confused sounds. Clamour flew so high, ••••er wings struck heaven and drown'd all voice. ••••ith tumult broke the air. Such a shout Made Polyphemus when his eyes went out. Driving affrighted Ecchoes through the air, ••ike the loud rattle of the drumming wind. Like Canons when they disgorge Their fierie vomits. So Aetna roars when &c. v. Ae••na. Their shout not that can passe, VVhich the loud blasts of ••hracian Boreas, On Pini•• Offa makes and bows amain The rattling wood, A noise horrid and as loud, As thunder makes before it breaks the cloud, Their noise not that of Thracian Boreas, Amongst the Pines of O••••a can surpasse, Nor that which Nilus falling water makes, Precipitated from the Cataracts. A noise that did the wounded air with terrour fill.

Such noise doth make, Enceladus, when he his tomb doth shake, Enough to make an Earthquake. Like ••he roar of a whole herd of lions. As loud a noise as make, the Hurrican, The River trembled underneath his banks To hear the replication of his sounds. No longer hold Their bursting joies, but through the air was ••oll'd, A lengthened shout, as when th' Artillerie, Of heavens discharg'd along the cleaving Skie, With such a foul great noise, that you would say, Surely some great Arcadian asse did bray, Whose noise appalls Worse than ten Irish Funeralls, As when confused cries, In dead of night rend the amazed Skies, That may be heard to the Antipodes.

V. Murmure. Shout. Nuptialls. v Marriage. Nymphs.

The wanton rangers of the wood. That in the Coral woods string pearls upon their hair. The beauteous Sylvan Deities. That trip upon the Mountains, Or delight in groves and fountains, That dally on the flowry hill or vallie. The buskin'd Deities. Nereides, Nayades, Dryades. H••madryades. Oreades.
