Sera par Roy en honneur sublimée,

Par grasse & maigre presque a deny etique;

Rapport de Venus faux rendra deprimée.

Second and third that make prime Musick,

Shall by the King be exalted to honour,

By a fat one, and a lean one, one in consumption,

A false report of Venus shall pull her down.

ANNOT.
