  I.
Here, here, oh here! EURIDICE,
  Here was she slaine;
Her soule 'still'd through a veine:
  The gods knew lesse
That time divinitie,
  Then ev'n, ev'n these
  Of brutishnesse.

  II.
Oh! could you view the melodie
  Of ev'ry grace,
And musick of her face,
  You'd drop a teare,
Seeing more harmonie
  In her bright eye,
  Then now you heare.
