Shin's liker Caesar▪
Epigr.
VVHat praise may my impartiall pen expresse,
And yet thy worth not to the full confesse?
Nor need I urge, to make my matter fine,
False flourishings, nor can I reach the line
Of thy profound approved prudence, neither;
Who searches first, then kils the sinners; rather
Then thou wilt not, shine liker Caesar, and
Though thou be young, gain honour to that Land,
From whence thou cam'st, and for thy worth who chus'd thee,
To send thee here; and for thy faith have us'd thee:
In state affairs, search and kill sinners; then
Shine liker Caesar, more then other men.
W. M.
