If their bee nothing new, but that which is,
Hath beene before, how are our braines beguild, Which laboring for inuention beare amisse The second burthen of a former child? Oh that record could with a back-ward looke, Euen of fiue hundreth courses of the Sunne, Show me your image in some antique booke, Since minde at first in carrecter 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 reuolution be the same. Oh sure I am the wits of former daies, To subiects worse haue giuen admiring praise.
