Epig. 46. Epitaph, on Mr. Fountaine and his young Son dying, and being buried together in one Grave.

Fountaine of teares shed here, here lies a man,
In whom a Fount of Learning gliding ran,
Yet cruell death this living. Fountaine stop'd,
The pleasant Palme that grew beside it crop't:
You may search farr, and yet not find a Well,
Fit with this matchlesse Fount to paralell.
