Veldar, whose Door the Herse first marched by
(Since sat up late) in Bed did prostrate lye;
But soon inform'd (more Life from thence appearing)
Alvarus Death; tho Duras greatly fearing,
If Ready was; strait called up two Men,
Which came from's Country-House, and should agen
That day depart, unknown to Duras both;
Gave private Charge, whilst there Himself did Cloath.
