On my friends picture, who died in travel.
Though now to heav'n thy travels are confin'd,Thy wealth, friends, life, and countrey, all are lost;
Yet in this picture we thee living finde;
And thou with lesser travel, lesser cost,
Hast found new life, friends, wealth, and better coast:
So by thy death thou liv'st, by losse thou gain'st,
And in thy absence present still remain'st.
