To his loving Friend, Master Timothy Langley.

Your large, compleat, solid sufficiencie,
Hid in the veile of your wise modesty;
Your quaint, neat Learning, your acute, quick wit,
And sincere heart for great imployments fit:
But stay, I have not time here to relate
Of your desert, what truely might be spake;
I will referre it till another time,
And I my selfe your servant will combine.
Your affecting Friend, S. P.
