To my Noble and most ingenious Friend, Col. Richard Lovelace, upon his LUCASTA.

So from the pregnant braine of Jove did rise
Pallas, the Queene of wit, and beautious eyes:
As faire LUCASTA from thy temples flowes,
Temples no lesse ingenious then Joves.

Alike in birth, so shall she be in Fame,
And be immortall to preserve thy Name.
