Part of an entertainment presented to the Countest'domm' ger of Derby i at^ Harefield^ by some noUe persons of her family^ fvho appear on the scene in pastoral habit, mo^ ving towards the seat cf state nvith this song ♦.
L SONG.
JLOOK nymphs, and ^pherds look.
What sudden blaze of tn^gestf Is that which we from hence deaciy.
Too divine to be mistook { ^ This, this is she ^ To whom our vows and wbhes bend; Here our solemn search kath etuL Fame that her high worth to todsei Scem'd erst so lavish
...and profuse, We may justly now accuse lo Of detraftion from her praise ; Less than half we find exprest, Envy bid conceal the rest.
Mark * This lady must have been Alice, daughter of Sir John Speoser of Althorp, Northamptonshire, and widow of Ferdinand Stanley, the fifth Earl of Derby. And as Harefield is in Middlesex, and, according to Camden, licth a little to the north of Uxhridp, we may conclude, that Hilton made this poem when he rcsl^d i» that neighbourhood with hit father at Horton near Colebroke.
