20. An Epitaph on Master Henry Hopkinson.

Lo, of old Natures true faith-fastned hearts
Lyes here a Picture, which with loveliest parts
Heavens hand did garnish, and exactly draw
With the quaint lines of Vertue, Art, and Law:
But lest too long it should to view be set,
Laid up his worke, and this the Cabinet.
