Ben Jonson - To John Donne
Work rating: Low

Donne, the delight of Phoebus and each Muse
    Who, to thy one, all other brains refuse;
    Whose every work of thy most early wit
    Came forth example, and remains so yet;
    Longer a-knowing than most wits do live;
    And which no affection praise enough can give!
    To it, thy language, letters, arts, best life,
    Which might with half mankind maintain a strife.
    All which I meant to praise, and yet I would;
   But leave, because I cannot as I should!
