ing come into the place where they
Yearely obserue the Orgies to that day,
The Muses from their Heliconian spring
Their brimfull Mazers to the feasting bring:
When with deepe Draughts out of those plenteous Bowles,
The iocond Youth haue swild their thirsty soules,
They fall enraged with a sacred heat,
And when their braines doe once begin to sweat 20
They into braue and Stately numbers breake,
And not a word that any one doth speake
But tis Prophetick, and so strangely farre
In their high fury they transported are,
As there's not one, on any thing can straine,
But by another answred is againe
In the same Rapture, which all sit to heare;
When as two Youths that soundly liquord were,
_Dorilus_ and _Doron_, two as noble swayns
As euer kept on the Elizian playns, 30
First by their signes attention hauing woonne,
Thus they the Reuels frolikly begunne.
Doron. _Come _Dorilus_, let vs be brave,
In lofty numbers let vs raue,
With Rymes I will inrich thee._
Dorilus. _Content say I, then bid the base,
Our wits shall runne the Wildgoosechase,
Spurre vp, or I will swich thee._
Doron. _The Sunne out of the East doth peepe,
And now the day begins to creepe, 40
Vpon the world at leasure._
Dorilus. _The Ayre enamor'd of the Greaues,
The West winde stroaks the velvit leaues
And kisses them at pleasure._
Doron. _The spinners webs twixt spray and spray,
The top of euery bush make gay,
By filmy coards there dangling._
Dorilus. _For now the last dayes euening dew
Euen to the full it selfe doth shew,
Each bough with Pearle bespangling._ 50
Doron. _O Boy how thy abundant vaine
Euen like a Flood breaks from thy braine,
Nor can thy Muse be gaged._
Dorilus. _Why nature forth did neuer bring
A man that like to me can sing,
If once I be enraged._
Doron. _Why _Dorilus_ I in my skill
Can make the swiftest Streame stand still,
Nay beare back to his springing._
Dorilus. _And I into a Trance most deepe 60
Can cast the Birds that they shall sleepe
When fain'st they would be singing._
Doron. _Why _Dorilus_ thou mak'st
