Thy maids attend the holy light. And thy large empire stretch her arms from east unto the west, And Albion on the Apennines advance her conquering crest. Finis. Mich. Drayton. 45 ENGLAND'S HELICON. THE BARGINET OF ANTIMACHUS. IN pride of youth, in midst of May, When birds with many a merry lay Salute the sun's uprising ; I sat me down fast by a spring, And while there merry chanters sing, I fell upon surmising. Amidst my doubt and mind's debate, Of change of time, of world's estate, I spied a b...oy attired In silver plumes, yet naked quite. Some pretty feathers fit for flight. Wherewith he still aspired. A bow he bare, to work man's wrack, A little quiver at his back. With many arrows fill'd ; And in his soft.and pretty hand. He held a lively burning brand, Wherewith he lovers kill'd. Fast by his side, in rich array. There sat a lovely lady gay, His mother as I guess'd, That set the lad upon her knee. And trimm'd his bow, and taught him flee. And mickle love profess'd. Oft from her lap at sundry stoures.
