Gower: / Imagine Pericles arrived at Tyre, / Welcomed and settled to his own desire. / His woeful queen we leave at Ephesus, / Unto Diana there a votaress. / Now to Marina bend your mind, / Whom our fast-growing scene must find / At Tarsus, and by Cleon train'd / In music, letters; who hath gain'd / Of education all the grace, / Which makes her both the heart and place / Of general wonder. But, alack, / That monster envy, oft the wrack / Of earned praise, Marina's life / Seeks to take off by treason's knife.
