POEMS FOR COTTON MATHER'S MAGNALIA

Cottonus Matherus

Anagr.

Tu tantum Cohors es.

Epigramma.

Ipse, vales Tantum, Tu, mi memorande MATHERE,
Fortis pro Christo Miles, es ipse cohors.

A Pindaric.

Art thou Heavens Trumpet? sure by the Archangel blown;
Tombs Crack, Dead Start, Saints Rise, are seen and known,
And Shine in Constellation;
From ancient Flames here's a New Phoenix flown,
To shew the World, when Christ Returns, he'll not Return alone.
