Epig. 13. On a Lady singing.

VVhat Heavenly sounds inchant my eares,
Passing the Musick of the Spheares?

Me thinks I heare a Mellodie
Better then Arions harmonie,
The quavering of a well tun'd voyce
Making a most Celestiall noise.
Angel-like Quires that sing in Heaven,
The Muses Nine, the Plannets Seven
Stand still, and listning do admire
These songs, equall t'Apollos Lyre.
