To the ingenious Author, Mr. J. H. Upon his DIVINE PHYSICIAN.
WHat in thy serious studies may we meet!When even thy recreations are so sweet.Thy Book is Grace and Nature bound together;Take it which way you will, it answers either:So prettily, so piously compact,Divinity and Physick keep one Act.Strange Treatise I can reach down from my shelfConsists of Soul and Body like my self!Thou shew'st thy self (believ't) in thy Design,A good Physician, and a good Divine.And that Physician to the Mark comes close,That cures both Soul and Body with a Dose.Go on and prosper fourth and fifth Edition,Till John like Luke be the belov'd Physician.
M. S.
