[To the swift Victor be no more assign'd]

[To the swift Victor be no more assign'd]

To the swift Victor be no more assign'd
The bleating Offspring of the fleecy kind.
But from the Olive, which spontaneous grows
In Pisa's Vale, a verdant Crown compose;
That Olive, round whose venerable Head
Her subtle Textures hath Arachne spread.
