Work rating: Low


Behold! three sister-wonders, in whom met, Distinct and chast, the splendrous counterfeit Of Juno, Venus and the warlike Maid, Each in their three divinities array`d; The majesty and state of Heav`ns great Queen, And when she treats the gods, her noble meen; The sweet victorious beauties and desires O` th` sea-born princess, empresse too of fires; The sacred arts and glorious lawrels torn From the fair brow o` th` goddesse father-born; All these were quarter`d in each snowy coat, With canton`d honours of their own, to boot. Paris, by fate new-wak`d from his dead cell, Is charg`d to give his doom impossible. He views in each the brav`ry of all Ide; Whilst one, as once three, doth his soul divide. Then sighs so equally they`re glorious all: WHAT PITY THE WHOLE WORLD IS BUT ONE BALL!
