Of love's rewards to tell the happy hour,

Daphne a tree, Narcissus made a flower,

And by what means the Eclogue yet has power

To make the woods worthy a conqueror:

This of their writings is the grace and flight;

Their risings lofty, yet not out of sight.

ELEGY.

The Elegy, that loves a mournful style,

With unbound hair weeps at a funeral pile;
