— from Lady Lilith by Stephen McKenna

Now let me know what my best Art hath done, Helpt by the great power of the vertuous moon In her full light; O you sons of Earth, You only brood, unto whose happy birth Vertue was given, holding more of nature Than man her first born and most perfect creature, Let me adore you; you that only can Help or kill nature, drawing out that span Of life and breath even to the end of time; You that these hands did crop, long before prime Of day; give me your names, and next your hidden power.
— from The Faithful Shepherdess The Works of Francis Beaumont and John Fletcher (Volume 2 of 10). by John Fletcher
