AN ELEGIE On the Death of Mr. William Dunlop Principal of the University of Glasgow . — Quis talia fando temperet à Lachrymis ? MUst we now our Ideas thus imploy , Ah's Death lament in stead of Joy : Sader's our State than when scarce Aeneas , To Dido could tell 's Ideas ; Even worse then when to Jacob 't was told , Rent Joseph is , whereas but Sold. WE ought therefore his Praises to resound , In Thousands since his Match isn't found . Lo He like Holy Lot , his Time spent here , Loving his GOD , and Him did fear : In Preaching He , like Luther was a Star , Any Convincing that did Err ; Moses for Meekness , Aaron in his Speech , DEspising Ill , and well did Teach , Uriah's Sp'rit , in Him did ly of Gold , None so Precious to be Sold : Like Joseph for 's Parts , the KING did'm Promote , O're passing many in his Coat . Plac'd by the KING , the Colledge to Govern , PIety to Plant , did Discern : Rightly , yea , by our Lords , He was Elect'd , In Speed cur Trade for to direct . None could , so well with Peace Debates agree , Concerning Gentlemen , as did He. In Nestor's Age , His Equal was , I don't believe , Paul like He was , when here He did survive , All His rare Virtues , I cannot Rehearse , Lowing my Sails , I end my Verse .
