HAth Fate, and Time, conspird, to send thee Death, In spite of all the life guard of his breath: Health, Wit, and Courage, [strength for to withstand,] Natures [declining age], by temperance hand: Grew not his sences like the lawrell greene, By yeeres experience still more riper seene, Grew not his care still for his countries good; A Bulwarke that false Antichrist withstood: Was not his care his study, and his mind, To beate downe Vice, and have the Church refin'd: Did not his Judgement in the knowing Lawes, Both Temporall and Divine deserve applause: Did not his care spread like a saving shroud, With wholsome Counsell fit to b[e] allow'd, Like to a reverend Rabby of the Land. Judgement possest his Braine, Justice his Hand; Patience and temperance both liv'd in his mind, Pity his heart, his eyes alwaies inclind, To looke upon distresses of the poore, and apply helpe, What can a man doe more. His well pend Speeches, grave, discreet, and good, Hath been approv'd, by those that understood, To favour nothing, but of care, and weale, To publique health, who their defects would heale. Harsh roughnesse mixture had not in his blood, Meekenesse, and patience in his actions stood, Petitions given him from humble hands, As humbly he takes, and for them stands; So far that if they righteous things require, 'Tis hard if he cannot finish their desire: And what gain'd he for all his well inclind, But censure evill from the base of mind,
Hate of Malignant Papists, Cavaliers, With their abusive libells, still appeares, To fling at him reproch, and scandalls base, Which backwards still return[']d unto each face: And still in spite of their weak Etnian ire, His perfect gold outliv'd their hatefull fire, And I could wish that that from his ashie urne, That his new Fenix might to us returne. AN ACROSTICK on his name. I doe not grieve but thousands more, Over thy marble drops a second showre. Hearts fill'd with sorrow, eyes still overflowes Nothing but teares can ever drown sad woes. Peace quiet rest give thee, yet thy name shall be In every heart worn for thy memory: Meane time we stand engag'd thou hast discharged thine. EPITAPH. Heres Earth in Earth involv'd Oh su[c]h a mold! Whose ore is purer then refined gold. Worms touch it not 'tis such a sacred clay You cannot rape, remain then t[i]ll the day Your separations meet, when both may bee Happy reviv'd in blest eterni[t]y.
