Writing.

Behold two pens, this writes faire, that as fast
As the swift East winds quicke and nimble blast
This fell from great Joves snowie wing, when he
Turn'd swan, faire Leda, lay all night with thee.
That Iove turn'd eagle, dropt from heaven above,
When he the beauteous Phrygian lad did love.
They both expresse their birds, the first doth text
Fairly thy acts, (O King) swiftly the next.
