In Honorem Doctissimi Authoris.
VVHy Stationer? do'st thinke that I can PaintThe Intellect? Or Beauty of a Saint?Or adde more Lustre to the Daie's-Bright-Eye?Or may I Circumscribe Eternitie?Then bid me Mount, and Penetrate the Skies,And not Commend, but see the Sacrifice.For, 'tis as possible to view their Glories,As to Out strip the Author of their Stories:And who so strives to set his Labours forth,Contributes not, but 'bateth of his worth.But if thou do'st desire the Book should Sell,Fix thereunto his Name; and then it will.
