An Ode for him.
AH Ben!Say how, or whenShall we thy GuestsMeet at those Lyrick Feasts,Made at the Sun,The Dog, the triple Tunne?Where we such clusters had,As made us nobly wild, not mad;And yet each Verse of thineOut-did the meate, out-did the frolick wine.
descriptionPage 343
My BenOr come agen:Or send to us,Thy wits great over-plus;But teach us yetWisely to husband it;Lest we that Tallent spend:And having once brought to an endThat precious stock; the storeOf such a wit the world sho'd have no more.
