A MISCELLANY
OF
Epigrams, Sonnets, Epitaphs, and such other
Verses, as were found written with
the Poem aforegoing.

Of the Invention of the Nine Muses.

The acts of Ages past doth Clio write.
The Tragedies', Melpomene's delight.
Thalia is with Comedies contented.
Euterpe, first, the Shepherd's Pipe invented.
Terpsichore doth Song and Lute apply.
Dancing Erato found Geometry.
Calliope on loving Verses dwells.
The secrets of the stars, Urania tells.
Polyhymnia, with choice words, the speech doth trim
And great Apollo shares with all of them.
Those thrice three Feminines, we Muses call;
But that one Masculine is worth them all!
