To Æsculapius.

ith Æsculapius, (the Phisition) Sonne,
That cur'd all sicknesse, and was Phœbus
My Muse, makes Entrie; to whose life gaue yield
Diuine Coronis, in the Dotian field,
(King Phlegius Daughter:) who, much Ioy on Men
Conferd in deare Ease, of their yrkesome Paine.
For which; my salutation (worthy King)
And vowes to thee paid, euer when I sing.
