And though thou hadst small Latin and less Greek,
From thence to honour thee, I will not seek
For names: but call forth
thundering
Eschylus,
Euripides, and Sophocles to us,
Pacuvius, Accius, him of Cordoua dead,
To live again, to hear thy buskin tread,
And shake a stage; or, when thy socks were on,
Leave thee alone for the comparison
Of all that insolent Greece, or haughty Rome
Sent forth, or since did from their ashes come.

laying it aside for some years, she

it for publication in
