ON THE R. H. SUSAN, COUNTESSE OF MONTGOMERIE.
Though we trust the earth with thee,We will not with thy memorie;
Mines of Brasse or Marble shall
Speake nought of thy funerall;
They are veryer dust then we,
And do begg a Historye:
In thy Name there is a Tombe,
If the world can giue it Roome;
For a Vere, & Herberts wyfe
Outspeakes Tombes, out-liues all lyfe.
