To the Memorie of the great Earle of Warwicke

Richard Nevile:

Repose, Heroicke Dust; thy better part
Inherit Glorie. Thus my little Art
Can give noe more; but when this verse of mine,
(How long soever Muses grant it Shine
And shadow out thy Storie,) shall decay;
Rise brighter to Posteritie! and may
Diligent Poets of another Age
New dress thy Glories in a high-borne Rage;
Equall to antique Greece, or Rome's owne fire.
Vnprofitable Muses can aspire
In wishes onlie: but I doe thee wrong;
Live, till men thinke true Glorie lives too long;
Even till thy owne Name can noe more be Sung.
The End.
Dignum laude virum Musa vetat mori.
