ON GOODMAN HURST OF THE GEORGE AT HORSHAM,
DYEING SUDDAINELY WHILE YE E. OF NOTTINGHAM LAYE THERE, 26 AUGUST, 1637.
See what we are: for though we often saye,Wee are like guests that ride vpon the waye,
Trauell and lodge, & when the Morne comes on,
Call for a reck'ning, paye, & so are gone—
Wee err; and haue lesse time to be possest,
For see! the Hoste is gone before the guest.
