Doe life conceiue and quickned are by kynd:
So after Nilus invndation,
Infinite shapes of creatures[997] men do fynd,
Informed in the mud, on which the Sunne hath shynd.
Great father he of generation ix
Is rightly cald, th’author of life and light;
And his faire sister for creation
Ministreth matter fit, which tempred right
With heate and humour, breedes the liuing wight.
So sprong these twinnes in wombe of Chrysogone,
