Epig. 8. Silvesters Translation of Du-Bartas, His Divine Weeks, and Works.

'Twere no absurdity to question it,
Whether the great Du-Bartas better writ,
Or Silvester translated, quaintly rare
Is his conversion, had he rested there
His Fame had been advanced to the skies,
Now groveling, clog'd with his own Fripperies.
