Of Unities.

In Infinite if Infinite degrees,
Then those Degrees may meet in Unities.
And if one man should have the strength of foure,
Then foure to equal him will be no more.
As if one Line should be in four parts cut,
Shall equall the same Line together put;

8

So two and one, though odd, is three;
Yet three and three shall equall be.
Like those that equall spaces backwards go,
To those that's forward, equalls them we know.
Like Buckets in a Well, if empty be,
As one descends, the other ascends, we see
So Motions, though they'r crosse, may well agree,
As oft in Musick make a Harmony.
