Thy self with that ignoble slaughter fill,

’Twill be permitted thee that blood to spill.

Measure the ruder world throughout,

March all the Ocean shores about,

Only pass by and spare the British Isle.

Go on, and (what Columbus once shall do,

When daies and time unto their ripeness grow)

Find out new lands, and unknown countries too.

Attempt those lands which yet are hid

From all Mortalitie beside:
