AN EPITAPH ON MR. JOHN SMYTH, CHAPLAYNE TO THE RIGHT HOBLE THE EARLE OF PEMBROOKE.
Know thou, that treadst on learned Smyth invrn'd,Man is an Houre-glasse that is neuer turn'd;
He is gone through; & we that stay behinde,
Are in the vpper Glasse, yet vnrefynde.
When we are fit, with him soe truely iust,
We shall fall downe, and sleepe with him in dust.
