Rose-cheeked Adonis, with his amber tresses,

Fair fire-hot Venus, charming him to love her,

Chaste Lucretia, virgin-like her dresses,

Proud lust-stung Tarquin, seeking still to prove her:

Romeo, Richard; more whose names I know not,

Their sugared tongues, and power attractive beauty

Say they are saints, although that saints they show not,

For thousands vow to them subjective duty:

They burn in love, thy children, Shakespeare het them, [heated

Go, woo thy Muse, more Nymphish brood beget them.
