                                (That may be ridden, without rod or spurres)<lb/>
                                Abroad, more famous then Bucephalus,<lb/>

                                Augments his courage, and his vigour doubles.<lb/>
                                Thus, fares the Minde, infus'd with brave desires;<lb/>

                                Pursues her hopes, and takes the way she listeth.
