Stow in his Ann. p. 1249.

They sayling came in order for the fight,

In such a forme on Thetis siluer brest,

As bright-cheekt Cinthia shewes in darkest night,

When stretching out her hornes into the east,

She shewes but halfe her face, and hides the rest,

Which made a crescent moone vpon the maine,

Whose hornes eight miles in compasse did containe.
