Occasions Off-spring | ||
To his very good friend The AUTHOR.
I have perus'd thy book in which I findeThe perfect portrait of thy noble minde.
Did both suspect thy poesie, and prose.
But having read thee too, as well as it
I am thy wittnesse, t'was thine owne pure witt.
And therefore shall even for thy sake alone
Conclud, Minerva weares a colour'd gowne.
R. D.
