They bore their mighty Sire:

Swift in his arms the fainting Maid he took,

Then drove impetuous on, while all Sicilia shook.

SONNET.

O thou, to whom my heart (no longer mine)

Doth yield itself a captive love-subdued;

Fair goodly frame of Nature’s work divine

To inchase the gem thy mind more fair and good,

Let not thy scorn pursue the Muse’s Son,
