allas-Minerua's Deitie, the renown'd: My Muse, in her variety, must resound; Mightie in counsailes; whose Illustrous Eyes, In all resemblance, represent the skies. A reuerend Maid of an inflexible Minde: In Spirit, and Person, strong: of Triple kinde; Fautresse of Citties, that iust Lawes maintaine; Of Ioue-the-great-in-counsailes, very Braine Tooke Prime existence: his vnbounded Brows, Could not containe her; such impetuous Throw's Her Birth gaue way to; that abrode she flew, And stood in Gold arm'd, in her Fathers view, Shaking her sharpe Lance: all Olympus shooke So terriblie beneath her; that it tooke Vp, in amazes, all the Deities there. All Earth resounded, with vociferous Feare. The Sea was put vp, all in purple Waues; And settld sodainly, her rudest Raues. Hyperions radiant Sonne, his swift-hou'd Steedes, A mighty Tyme staid; till her arming weedes, As glorious at the Gods, the blew-eyd Maid Tooke from her Deathlesse shoulders: but then staid All these distempers; and heauens counsailor, Ioue, Reioic't that all things else, his stay, could moue. So I salute thee still; and still in Praise Thy Fame, and others, shall my Memorie raise.
