Levitas

A YOVTH arraid, in sundry cullors light,
And painted plumes that overspred his crest:
Describes the varieng and fantastique wight,
( For like our mindes, we commonly are drest:)
His right hand holdes, the bellowes to his eare,
His left, the quick, and speedie spurre doth beare.

Such is Capriccio, or th'vnstaied mind,
Whome thousand fancies howerly doe possesse,
For riding post, with every blast of wind,
In nought hee's steddie, saue vnstablenes:
Musitians, Painters, and Poetique crew,
Accept what RIPA, dedicates to you.
