Some Samuel Daniel for you

I have modernised the quote and I have fiddled with the punctuation for my own ends - I have committed word crimes . . . but with very good intentions.

'Now when this busy world cannot attend
th'untimely music of neglected lays,
other delights than these, other desires,
this wiser profit-seeking age requires . . .'

I like his words.

I might work on Daniel (neglected poet) when I retire ;)
