RPHEUS with his lute *9|~~ w made trees, And the mountain tops that freeze, Bow themselves when he did sing; To his music, plants and flowers Ever sprung, as sun and showers There had made a lasting spring. Everything that heard him play, Even the billows of the sea, Hung their heads, and then lay by. In sweet music is such art; Killing care and grief at heart Fall asleep, or, hearing, die. —SHAKESPEARE (King Henry VIII., Act 3, Scene 1.)
