<<Within weeks of his [30 May *1593*] death:

. [G]eorge [PEELE] remembered Marlowe
. . as "{MARLEY}, the Muses' darling";
.
. . Michael Drayton noted that Marlowe
."Had in him those brave translunary
. . things That the first poets had"

and Ben Jonson wrote of "Marlowe's mighty line". ...................................................
[T]homas [NASHE] wrote warmly of his friend,
. . . "poor deceased (KIT) Marlowe,"

as did the publisher Edward Blount in his dedication
. of Hero and Leander to Sir Thomas Walsingham.>> ---------------------------------------------------- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hero_and_Leander_(poem)

<<Two editions of Christopher Marlowe's _Hero and Leander_ were issued in quarto in 1598; one, printed by Adam Islip for the bookseller Edward Blount, contained only Marlowe's original, while the other, printed by Felix Kingston for Paul Linley, included
both the original and Chapman's continuation. In Bartholomew Fair, Ben Jonson lampoons the poem in the fair's puppet show; his Hellespont is the Thames, and his Leander is a DYER's son in Puddle-wharf. Hero and Leander is also the only identifiable work
of a contemporary writer quoted in any of the plays of William Shakespeare, specifically in As You Like It.>>

.
ROSALIND: No faith, die by Attorney: the poore world is
. almost six thousand yeeres old, and in all this time there
. was not anie man died in his owne person (videlicet) in
. a loue cause: Troilous had his braines dash'd out with a
. Grecian club, yet he did what hee could to die before,
. and he is one of the patternes of loue. Leander, he would
. haue liu'd manie a faire yeere though (HERO) had turn'd
. Nun; if it had not bin for a hot Midsomer-night, for
. (good youth) he went but forth to wash him in the Hel-
. lespont, and being taken with the crampe, was droun'd,
. and the foolish Chronoclers of that age, found it was
. Hero of Cestos. But these are all lies, men haue died
. from time to time, and wormes haue eaten them,
. but not for loue. -------------------------------------------------------------

. She bowes her head, the new-sprong floure to smel,
. Comparing it to her Adonis breath,
. And saies within her bosome it shall dwell,
. Since he himselfe is reft from h[E]r by death;
. She crop's the stalke, and in the breac[H] appeares,
. Green-dropping sap, which she copare[S] to teares.
. Poore floure (quoth she) this was thy f[A]thers guise,
. Sweet issue of a more sweet smelli[N]g sire,
. For euerie little griefe to wet his eies,
.[T]o grow vnto himselfe was his desire;
. And so tis thine, but know it is as good,
. To wither in my brest, as in his blood. ...............................................

. Here was thy fathers bed, here in my brest,
. Thou art the next of blood, and tis thy right.
. Lo in this hollow cradle take thy rest,
. My throbbing hart shall rock thee day and night;
. There shall not be one minute in an houre,
. Wherein I wil not kisse my sweet loues floure.
. Thus weary of the world, away she hies,
. And yokes her siluer doues, by whose swift aide,
. Their mistresse mounted through the emptie skies,
. In her light chariot, quickly is conuaide,
. Holding their course to Paphos, where their queen,
. Meanes to immure her selfe, and not beseen.

She saw him, and the sight was much much more,
Then might haue seru'd to kill her; should her store
Of giant sorrowes speake? Burst, d{Y}e, bleede,
And leaue poor{E} plaints to vs that sha(L|L} succeede.
She fell on h(E|R} loues bosome, hugg'd it (F|A}st,
And with Leanders *NA{M}E* she breath'd her last. -------------------------------------------------------

Neptune for pittie in his armes did take them,
Flung them into the ayre, and did awake them.
Like two sweet birds surnam'd th'Acanthides,
Which we call Thistle-warps, that neere no Seas
Dare euer come, but still in couples flie,
And feede on Thistle tops, to testifie
The hardnes of their first life in their last:
The first in thornes of loue, and sorrowes past,
And so most beautifull their colours show,
As none (so little) like them: her sad brow
A sable veluet feather couers quite,
Euen like the forehead cloths that in the night,
Or when they sorrow, Ladies vse to weare:
Their wings, blew, red and yellow mixt appeare,
Colours, that as we construe colours paint
Their states to life; the yellow shewes their saint,
The deuill Venus left them; blew their truth,
The red and black, ensignes of death and ruth.
And this true honor from their loue-deaths sprung,
They were the first that euer Poet sung.

FINIS.
