To Vesta.

Veesta, that (as a seruant) OuerseesKing Phœbus hallowd house: in all degreesOf Guide about it; on the sacred shoreOf heauenly Pythos: and hast euermoreRich balms distilling from thy Odorous hayre;Grace this House, with thy huswifely repaire.Enter, and bring a Minde that most may moue,Conferring, euen the great in counsailes, Ioue:And let my verse taste, of your eithers loue.
