De sue quæ ex vulnere peperit, Epig. 13.

Peircd with a deadly Dart the wounded Mother
At one time loos'd one life and gave another.
How sure the levell'd Steel the right hand throwes!
This was Lucina's arme I doe suppose.
Diana's double power she did sustain,
When th'Parents was deliverd and yet slain.
