OF JET,
Or PORPHYRIE,
Or that white Stone
PAROS affoordes alone,
Or these in AZVRE dye,
Which seem to scorne the SKYE;
Here Memphis Wonders doe not set,
Nor ARTEMISIA'S huge Frame,
That keepes so long her Louers Name:
Make no great marble Atlas tremble with Gold
To please a Ʋulgar EYE that doth beholde.
The Muses, Phoebus, Loue, haue raised of their teares
A Crystal Tomb to Him wherethrough his worth appears.
