But both him honor’d as their principall,

And let their swelling waters low before him fall.

There was the speedy Tamar, which deuides xxxi

The Cornish and the Deuonish confines;

Through both whose borders swiftly downe it glides,

And meeting Plim, to Plimmouth thence declines:

And Dart, nigh chockt[212] with sands of tinny mines.

But Auon marched in more stately path,

Proud of his Adamants, with which he shines

And glisters wide, as als’ of wondrous Bath,
