As o'er the mountains walks the wandering soul, Seeking for rest in his unresting spirit, So good DAIPHANTUS, thinking to enrol Himself in grace, by telling of Love's merit Was so distracted, how he should commend it, Where he began, he wished still to end it. "EURIALÆ, my eyes are hers in right! URANIA, my tongue is as her due! ARTESIA, my ears to her I 'dite! My heart to each! and yet my heart to you, To you, VITULLIA! to you, and all the rest, Who once me cursed, now to make me blest! "1 Beauty and 2 Wit, did 1 wound and 2 pierce my heart, 3 Music and 4 Favour, 3 gained and 4 kept it sure: Love led by Fancy to the 4 last I part, Love led by Reason to the 1 first is truer. 1 Beauty and 2 Wit first conquered, made me yield, 3 Music and 4 Favour rescued got the field. "To 2 Wit and 1 Beauty, my first love I give! 3 Music and 4 Favours, my second love have gained! All made me mad, and all did me relieve, Though one recured me, when I was sustained. Thus, troth to say, to All I love did owe; Therefore to All my love I ever vow!" Thus to the first 1 and 2, his right hand he did tender: His left hand to the 3 and 4; last most lovingly 4. His tongue kind thanks, first to the last did render, The whiles his looks were bent indifferently. Thus he salutes All: and to increase his blisses, From lip to lip, each Lady now he kisses. ISMENIO in humble wise salutes he, With gracious language he returns his heart, His words so sweetly to his tongue now suits he, As what he speaks shew Learning with good Art. ISMENIO pleased DAIPHANTUS, DAIPHANTUS All; _When love gains love for love, this Love we call!_ URANIA now bethought what was protested By young ISMENIO at DIANA'S shrine, Conjured DAIPHANTUS that, no more he jested With Love or Fancy! for they were Divine: And if he did, that there they all would pray He still might live in love, both night and day! This grieved him much (but folly 'twere to grieve!) His now obedience shewed his own free will. He swore "he would not love, in shew, achieve! But live a virgin, chaste and spotless still. Which said, such music suddenly delighted, As all were ravished, and yet all affrighted. Here parted all, not without joy and sadness. Some wept, some smiled; a world it was to hear them! Both springs here met. Woe here was clothed with gladness. Heaven was their comfort. It alone did cheer them. DAIPHANTUS from these springs, some fruit did gather. Experience is an infant, though an ancient father!
