To the Worthy Faster of a very virtuous Virgin deceased: who ••••si••••l an ••••seu•••• Pe••son to make an Elegie &c.
S• Be advis'd; She's not your Daughter now, But a crown'd Saint in Heavens great Court & You Must take heed what you offer to her Shrine You'l be prophane if that be not Divine. Sternold who kill'd the Psalmes and David too In Meeter and good meaning did not doe More violence to Heaven, then you to her, If whilst you think't a kindness you shall blurr Her honour with my Inke: 'tis a disgrace To set black spotts upon a Glorious Face. Disdaine will burst her Coffin sure to have Such dirty Feet as mine stand on her Grave. Besides 'tis niggardly to weep in Verse, Tears w.thout measure best become her Hearse. The talking Brook is shallow still we see Great Sorrows like deep Rivers silent bee. Were I Appollo's Priest indeed, and fitt To send a Poem up in flames of Witt, Yet I'm but one; Sr, to her Alter's due Whole Hecatombs of Verse & Poets too.Page [unnumbered]
