TO MY DEERE WIFE AND CHILDREN.
THese private notes and thoughts of min••,
Not worthy, nor so fit for publike view;
I (For last pledges of my love) consign,
(My neerest, deerest, private ones) to you.
Three sons, two sons and two daughters-in-Law, G••and-children eleven;
Beside•• those six and five,† 1.1 already gone to Heaven:
Beseeching God, by grace so to prepare us yet surviving here,
We all may meet together, and live for ev•••• there.
