For whatsoever that their number be

Whether by seavens, or eighths, or fives, or nines,

They round each fixed lamp; Infinity

Will be redoubled thus by many times.

Besides each greater Planet th’ attendance finds

Of lesser. Our Earths handmaid is the Moon,

Which to her darkned side right duly shines,

And Jove hath foure, as hath been said aboven,

And Saturn more then foure if the plain truth were known.
