“But if the envious nymphs shall fear
Their beauties will be scorn'd,

Their malice may despise;

A second Venus rise.”

"Song".
Carew's Poems

“Stand still, you floods, do not deface
That image which you bear:
So votaries, from every place,
To you shall altars rear.

No winds but lovers' sighs blow here,
To trouble these glad streams,
On which no star from any sphere
Did ever dart such beams.”
