A Pencill use, ’twere scarce in Limning skill.

And when you descant richly, thus, I see

Compos’d in severall parts, and all agree,

How Chords and Discords too, you do devise,

From Sympathies, and from Antipathies.

Your Fuges and Poynts into a Canon twine,

All true to th’ Ground, that is your main designe:

And all Concentring to so sweet an Ayre,

Would ravish Philomels, make Swans despair.

Your skill above fam’d Orpheus I advance,
