University of Virginia Library

120. To my brother in law Mr. William Nevil.

Dear Cambridgeshire, leave off to boast
Thy University so crost:
And Cambridgeshire, forbear to vaunt
Of Ely, fam'd for many a Saint;

141

And Westow-lodge henceforth let be
The primest glory that's in thee;
Where plenty, neatness, and a right
Well-govern'd house yield full delight;
VVherein you and your Lady give
Example how the good should live.
