O Neptune! hadst thou kept them still with thee,
Though both were lost to vs and such as we,
And with those beautious birds which on thy brest
Get and bring vp, afforded them a rest,
Delos that long time wandring peece of earth
Had not beene fam'd more for Diana's birth,
Then those few planks that bore them on the Seas,
By the blest issue of two such as these.
