     summary: For since then I saw a Lasse , Lasse that did in beauty passe , Passe faire Ganimede as farre As Phaebus dooth the smallest starre . Loue commaunded me to loue , Fancie bad me not remoue My affection from the Swaine Whom I neuer could obtaine : ( For who can obtaine that fauour Which he cannot graunt the crauer ? ) Loue at last ( though loth ) My breath more sweete then Balme in sauour . Be old man with me delighted , Loue for loue shall be requited .

     summary: We cannot inform you , but have only writ to * stir you up by way of remembrance , and humbly to put you in mind , that you † stir up the gift of God that is in you , and suffer not your worthy * Talents to be buried in the Napkin , now the sinking Church and dying Religion hath such pressing need for their utmost improvement . Should not the * Pillars of the Lord's House stand upright under their weight ? shall the † Jachin and Boaz of the Temple be as a man without strength ? You are the Champions of the Lord ; and shall not you be * valiant for the Truth upon Earth ? and confess your Lord in the face of danger , though in † midst of a wicked and adulterous generation ? Are not you the Shepherds of the Flocks ? And shall the true Shepherds flee , as * soon as they see the Wolves , and leave the Sheep ? When should they shew their care and diligence , their solicitude and watchfulness , if not when the beasts of prey come to tear , and to destroy ? You are the † Stewards and Dispensers of the Mysteries of God , that are to give to all the Family their portion , every one in their season ; and blessed is that servant ( only ) whom his Lord when he cometh shall find so doing : And how will the Master look on you at his return , if you suffer the Family to starve , when he hath left with you for their supply till he come ? And hath not God charged , that you † trade with your Talents ? and as you have received the gift ,

     summary: Have you kept a dilligent Watch Night and Day with Carefuln●s for their Soules ? Have your Locks been wet with the Dew , and the Hairs of your Heads with the Frosts , to preserve their Feet in the way of Peace , and from the Devourer , and out of all fil thy and unclean wayes ? Have you been as good examples before the several Flocks in all things , walking before them as good patterns ? Have ye led them to the pastures of Life , and fed them in due season ? Or have yee not played the Careless Idle Shepherds , Sitting in your Fat places , and Lying upon your Soft pillows , at your e●●e : Feeding with the Fat , and Sporting your selves in your day and time , whils't the several poor Flocks go astray in the by Paths , and are scattered in the bar●en Wilderness , as Sheep wanting a Shepheard , and as a People lost their Guide ; where their poor Soules are starved for want of the Bread of Life ? Have yee led the severa● Flocks to the Fountain of Living Mercies and Wel-spring of Life : and caused them to drink Freely , without Money , and be Refresh●d , wh●reby they all become Fruitful , and none Barren as the Flocks in Solomons Song chap. 5. or are they not dryed up Head and Tayl for want of the Springs of Life and so Unfruitful in any thing that is Good ? And have not you in this condition led , and drove them , by your Example , and Perswasion ; to the dirty Paddles and Kennels of Sin and Uncleanness ? And have not you ( the pretended ) Heardsmen of all sorts perswaded the Flocks that this is that they must Dr●nk and Lick up whilst on this side the Grave ? And is not your Flocks ( as you call them ) by that means fallen into grose disseafes , as Rottenness of Heart , Unsoundness of Mind , Blindness and Deafness , from seeing th●ir Salvation , and Hearing the Voice of the Lord Jesus ? And are they not fallen into Lameness of Feet and Hands ? and cannot walk upright in the just mans path , which is a Shining Light , but stumbles at it : nor cannot handle the Sword of the Spirit , which is the Word of God ; by which they should war against the Man of Sin , and break down his strong holds .

     summary: But if this be so , what wi●l becom● of Macrobius , Georgius Valla , Julius caliger , Vossius , and the whole company of Grammarians ? who all affirm that simplicity and meanness is so essential to Pastorals that it ought to be confi●'d to the State , Manners , Apprehension and even common phrases of Sheapards : for nothing c●n be said to be Pastoral , which is not accommodated to their condition : and for this Reason Nannius Alcmaritanus in my opinion is a trifler , who , in his comments on Virgils Eclogues , thinks that those sorts of Composures may now and then be lofty , and treat of great subjects : where he likewise divides the matter of Bucolicks , into Low , Middle , and High and makes Virgil the Author of this Division , who in his Fourth Eclogue , ( as he imagines ) divides the matter of Bucolicks into Three sorts , and intimates this division by these three words : You , Helen , and the Valiant Brave that strove At Troy for Injur'd Menelaus Love , Poets have serv'd , for with exalted rage They tell your fame , and spread thro future Age ; Homer hath rais'd it with a lofty thought , He writes with the same Spirit that you fought ; He sings the Grecian fleet , grave Nestor's care , And brave Achilles , fortress of the War : I bring the Tribute of a meaner Muse , Those humble strains her spareing Heats infuse ; Yet this is all , the best that I can do , The utmost that my Talent will allow : And to the Gods , let Riches vainly strive , Songs are the greatest present Men can give .
