A HYMNE TO THE MUSES, by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
First Line: O! You the virgins nine!
Last Line: Acknowledger of you.
Subject(s): Muses


O! you the Virgins nine!
That doe our soules encline
To noble Discipline!
Nod to this vow of mine:
Come then, and now enspire
My violl and my lyre
With your eternall fire:
And make me one entire
Composer in your Quire.
Then I'le your Altars strew
With Roses sweet and new;
And ever live a true
Acknowledger of you.
