The tenth of Ianuary the sunne enters into Aquarius, Or the signe of the Waterbearer. Aquarius. Ianuary

The Glorious Great Extinguisher of Night
Immures his bright translucent golden head,
And from his Radient seeme he doth alight.
To rest his steeds in cold Aquarius bed.
Now hory frost, hath Tellus sate or'espread,
And chilling numnesse whets the shauing ayre,
All vegitable creatures now seeme dead
Like curelesse cures past and repast repaire:
Frigidius Ianus two-fold frozen face
Turnes moist Aquarius into congeal'd yce:
Though by the fires warme side the pot haue place:
Of winters wrath it needs must know the price.
At last daies burning torch, againe takes horse,
And into wetter weather makes his course.
