<Enough Is as Good as a Feast>
<L E>
<SP Prologue>
<SZ RR>
I know that this worshipful audience
Is at this time together congregate
Of our practice to have intelligence
And with the same themselves to recreate.
God grant us grace the same well to publicate.
But for them that have slept at Parnassus
This faculty is more meet for them than for us;
<L L>
Pandite pierides vestro sacra ostia vitae.
<L E>
<SZ RR>
Open your holy doors O pleasant Muses;
Direct our tongues to speak eloquently,
Virtues to praise and to touch abuses,
Dividing either of them plain and direclty
That it may appear to all our audience evidently
That this matter which we now go about
By your inspiration was first found out.
<SZ RR>
O that with some grace you would us inspire
And deal with us as with Orpheus you dealt;
Then should all affections have their desire, . . .
