To the most ingenious Author Mr. W. BROWNE.

INgenious Swaine! that highly dost adorne Clear Tauy! on whose brinck we both were borne! Iust Praise in me would ne're be thought to moe From thy sole Worth, but from my partiall Loue. Wherefore I will not doe thee so much wrong, As by such mixture to allay thy Song, But while kinde strangers rightly praise each Grace Of thy chaste Muse; I (from the happy Place That brought thee forth, and thinkes it not vnfit To boast now that it earst bred such a Wit;) Would onely haue it knowne I much reioyce; To heare such Matters, sung by such a Voyce.

IOHN GLANVILL.
