His lovely picture; which when she had viewed,

Her beauties were with all love's joys renewed;

The odours sweeten'd, and the fires burned clear,

Leander's form left no ill object there:

Such was his beauty, that the force of light,140

Whose knowledge teacheth wonders infinite,

The strength of number and proportion,

Nature had placed in it to make it known,

Art was her daughter, and what human wits

For study lost, entombed in drossy spirits.
