Work rating: Low


Where art thou Muse that thou forget`st so long, To speak of that which gives thee all thy might? Spend`st thou thy fury on some worthless song, Darkening thy power to lend base subjects light? Return forgetful Muse, and straight redeem, In gentle numbers time so idly spent; Sing to the ear that doth thy lays esteem And gives thy pen both skill and argument. Rise, resty Muse, my love`s sweet face survey, If Time have any wrinkle graven there; If any, be a satire to decay, And make time`s spoils despised every where. Give my love fame faster than Time wastes life, So thou prevent`st his scythe and crooked knife.
