Vpon these Poems of his dearest Brother, Sir Iohn Beaumont, Baronet.
When lines are drawn greater then Nature, ArtCommands the Obiect, and the Eye to part,
Bids them to keepe at distance, know their place,
VVhere to receiue, and where to giue their grace;
I am too neere thee, Beaumont, to define
VVhich of those Lineaments is most diuine,
And to stand farther off from thee, I chuse
In silence rather to applaude thy Muse,
And lose my censure; tis enough for mee
To ioy, my Pen was taught to moue by thee.
George Fortescue.
