Now Dian, with her burning face,
Declines apace,
By which our waters know
To ebb, that late did flow.
Back seas, back nymphs; but with a forward grace
Keep, still, your reverence to the place;
And shout with joy of favour you have won
In sight of Albion, Neptune's son.
(from The Masque of Blackness)
