Thus Love taught men! and men thus learned of Love
Sweet Music's sound with feet to counterfeit:
Which was long time before high-thundering Jove
Was lifted up to Heaven's imperial seat.
For though by birth he were the Prince of Crete,
Nor Crete nor Heaven should that young Prince have seen,
If dancers with their timbrels had not been.

Since when all ceremonious mysteries,
All sacred orgies and religious rites,
