Carmen Protrepticon; Lectori

Men looke on Poems, but they doe not reade
Them to the Sence; which makes the Fancie deade,
And circumscribes the Author in a fewe
Smooth running Words. But if you passe a Due
Censure on Writer's ayme, at iudging well;
Weigh everie word and everie Sillable:
And though you read 'em twice, and something find
To strike your Fancie, thinke there is behind
Another Sence, worth all that you have knowne;
The Poet made 'em Such, and that's His owne.
