AD Reuerendissimum Dominum Episcopum Londinensem. EPIGRAMMA

Thee , learned King, the learnedst King elected
Great London's Pastor; which Thee glad-expected:
Others are wont, that hunt for such Reward
Of Wit and Art, sue in the See's Vacation:
Thee King, the King, th'Arch-Bishop call'd preferd;
The Citie, too; Thou haddst thy See's Vocation.
Eiusdem Præconis disertissimi ANAGRAMMA. Iohannes King. Oh, Igni-Canens!
