To his Honoured Kinsman, Sir Richard Stone.

TO this white Temple of my Heroes, here Beset with stately Figures (every where) Of such rare Saint-ships, who did here consume Their lives in sweets, and left in death perfume. Come thou Brave man! And bring with Thee a Stone Unto thine own Edification. High are These Statues here, besides no lesse Strong then the Heavens for everlastingnesse: Where build aloft; and being fixt by These, Set up Thine own eternall Images.
