ABSTRACT
The Muses then did florish, and upon My pleasant mounts planted their Helicon. Then that great wonder of the knowing age, Whose very name merits the amplest page In Fames faire book, admired Johnson stood Up to the chin in the Pierian flood, Quaffing crownd bowles of Nectar, .. Beaumont and Fletcher gloriously did sit
.. R:uling the Theater . . . And noble Donne (borne to more sacred use) Exprest his heavenly raptures: As the juice Of the Hyblean roses did distill Through the Alembick of his nectard quill.
