But the appearance of the nightly starres

Is but the by-work of each neighbour sun;

Wherefore lesse marvell if it lightly shares

Of neater Art; and what proportion

Were fittest for to distance one from one

(Each world I mean from other) is not clear.

Wherefore it must remain as yet unknown

Why such perplexed distances appear

Mongst the dispersed lights in Heaven thrown here & there.
