First Line: Beyond th' old pillers many have travelled
Last Line: Farther then wingefield no man dares to goe.


Beyond th'old Pillers many have travailed
Towards the Suns cradle, and his throne, and bed:
A fitter Piller our Earle did bestow
In that late Island; for he well did know
Farther then Wingefield no man dares to goe.
