If there be nothing new, but that which is,
Hath beene before, how are our braines beguild, Which labouring for invention beare amisse The second burthen of a former child? O that record could with a back-ward looke, Even of five hundreth courses of the Sunne, Show me your image in some antique booke, Since mine at first in character was done. That I might see what the old world could say, To this composed wonder of your frame, Whether we are mended, or where better they, Or whether revolution be the same. Oh sure I am the wits of former dayes, To subjects worse have given admiring praise.
