This Figure,that thou here feeft put,
   It was for gentle Shakefpeare cut;
Wherein the Grauer had a ftrife
   with Nature, to out-doo the life :
O,could he but haue drawne his wit
   As well in braffe, as he hath hit
His face ; the Print would then furpaffe
   All,that was euer writ in braffe.
But,fince he cannot, Reader,looke
   Not on his Picture, but his Booke.
