I. D. of Hereford in praise of William Parry Gentleman.
TO creepe like Ants about this earthie Round,And not to gather with the Ant, is vaine:Some finde out Countries which were neuer found,Yet scarcely get their labour for their paine:Whereby I gather, there they gather not,But rather scatter. Better lost than foundWere all such Countries. Will, such is thy lot,Thou hast lost ground, to finde out other ground,Yet thou hast found much more than thou couldst lose,Thogh thou couldst lose more than the Seas confine,For thou hast found that, none could finde, but thoseThat seeke, as thou hast done, for Wisedomes eine,
And that's Experience, no where to be seene,But eu'ry where, where thou (good Will) hast beene.
Tam Arte Quam Marie.
