Just men they seemd, and all thir study bent

They light the Nuptial Torch, and bid invoke [ 590 ]

Rove without rein, till in the amorous Net

Was heard, of Harp and Organ; and who moovd [ 560 ]

Fast caught, they likd, and each his liking chose;

Thir stops and chords was seen: his volant touch

To som Ca九九藏書ves mouth, or whether washt by stream

My dissolution. Michael replid,

Not hid, nor those things last which might preserve

Of rendring up, and patiently attend

Of Instruments that made melodious chime

He lookd and saw a spacious Plaine, whereon

But on the hether side a different sort

Down to the Plain descended: by thir guise

In Gems and wantoｈttｐｓ://ｒeａd.９9ｃｓｗ•cｏmn dress; to the Harp they sung

Live well, how long or short permit to Heavn:

Loves Harbinger appeerd; then all in heat

The Men though grave, eyd them, and let thir eyes [ 585 ]

Fled and pursud transverse the resonant fugue.

And now prepare thee for another sight. [ 555 ]

Labouring, two massie 九_九_藏_書clods of Iron and Brass [ 565 ]

First his own Tooles; then, what might else be wrought

Henceforth I flie not Death, nor would prolong

Which I must keep till my appointed day [ 550 ]

Down to the veins of Earth, thence gliding hot

Fairest and easiest of this combrous charge,

With Feast and Musick all the Tents resound.

In other part stood one who at the Forge

Had wasted woods on Mountain or in Vale,

Instinct through all proportions low and high

Of Cattel grazing: others, whence the九_九_藏_書 sound

And now of love they treat till thEevning Star

A Beavie of fair Women, richly gay

Into fit moulds prepard; from which he formd

Soft amorous Ditties, and in dance came on:

Hymen, then first to marriage Rites invokt;

To worship God aright, and know his works

Life much, bent rather how I may be quit

From the high neighbouring Hills, which was thir Seat, [ 575 ]
