 | The Historie of Ivdith in Forme of a Poeme |  |
VVhē th' Air is calme, & still as dead & deafe,
And vnder heavne quakes not an aspin leafe,
VVhen Seas are calme, and thousand vessels fleete
Vpō the sleeping seas with passage sweete.
And when the variant wind is still and lowne,
the cunning Pylot neuer can be knowne.
