Art, and that Art at nature did repine;

So striuing each th’other to vndermine,

Each did the others worke more beautifie;

So diff’ring both in willes, agreed in fine:

So all agreed through sweete diuersitie,

This Gardin to adorne with all varietie.

And in the midst of all, a fountaine stood, lx

Of richest substaunce, that on earth might bee,

So pure and shiny, that the siluer flood

Through euery channell running one might see;
