A MUSIC LESSON FROM MASTER THOMAS MACE TO BE

PLAYED BY LADY FAIR: A STORY, THAN WHICH

THERE IS NONE PRETTIER IN THE

MUSIC.

HISTORY OF

What shall I say? Or shall I say no more?
I must go on! I'm brim-full, running o'er.
But yet I'll hold, because I judge ye wise;
And few words unto such may well suffice.
But much-much more than this I could declare;
Yet for some certain reasons I'll forbear.
But less than this I could not say; because,

For 'tis the Doctor's cause I plead so strong for,

And 'tis his cause compleated that I long for,
And 'tis true doctrine certainly I preach,

And 'tis that doctrine every priest should teach.
THOMAS MACE, TO ALL DIVINE READERS.

The thorn and the rose,

I find by experience that Writing is like Building, wherein the undertaker, to supply some defect, or serve some convenience which at first he foresaw not, is usually forced to exceed his first model and proposal, and many times to double the charge and expence of it.
