42. To the Lady Elizabeth Darcy, my Cousin German.
Madam, the greatest Ladies of past TimesKind Influences upon Poets rhimes
Have from their gracious eyes bestow'd, and made
Them Heaven with their Inventions to invade.
As the Pelignan Poet honour'd by
The supreme Princess of sweet Italy,
Who singing her (under Corinna's Name)
Fill'd the whole Roman Empire with her Fame;
Which having spread from his immortal verse,
Is now renown'd through all the Universe.
And (Madam) you will do your self no wrong
T'encourage a good Poet in his Song;
And to your mercy you no Injury do,
If you forgive this toy I've sent to you.
