His name be-speakes him happy, and his worth
Swels high enough to set his prayses forth
In ample volumes; for his soul was lin'd
With true Divinity; his serious minde
Was alwayes active, labring to invest
Distressed souls with true angel-like rest:
Let his examples teach us how to be
Content in truth, and love Divinity;
That so at last we may receive those gaines
That daily waite upon celestiall straines.
