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 Iudgement in the knowing Lawes , Both Temporall and Divine deserve applause : Did not his care spread like a saving shroud , With wholsome Counsell fit to be allow'd , Like to a reverend Rabby of the Land . Iudgement possest his Braine , Iustice 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 savour 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 , Petition● given him from humble hands , As humbly he takes , and for them stands ; So far that if they righteous things require , 'T is 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 . Here s Earth in Earth involv'd Oh such a mold ! Whose ore is purer then refined gold . Worms touch it not 't is such a sacred clay You cannot rape , remain then till the day Your separations meet , when both may bee Happy reviv'd in blest eternity .
Finis .
