Strana 9 - The third requisite in our poet, or maker, is imitation: to be able to convert the substance or riches of another poet to his own use. To make choice of one excellent man above the rest, and so to follow him till he grow very he, or so like him as the copy may be mistaken for the principal.
Strana 12 - Then vanish upstart Writers to each Stage, You needy Poetasters of this Age, Where Shakespeare liv'd or spake, Vermine forbeare, Least with your froth you spot them, come not neere; But if you needs must write, if poverty So pinch, that otherwise you starve and die, On Gods name may the Bull or Cockpit have Your lame blancke Verse, to keepe you from the grave: Or let new Fortunes younger brethren see, What they can picke from your leane industry.
