13. To his Honourable Mother.
Mother-in-Lawes, Poets much Vilifie;You, did I never; no, not secretly.
When own Mothers prove Sowre, Unnatural;
Mother-in-Laws; Sons, may them aptly call.
She that is not by Nature, yet may be
An Own Mother, by sweet Indulgency.
I shall endeavour Duty to improve;
According to the Merits, of your Love.
You shall not lose those Favours, you lend Me:
This is the Time, for my Retaining Fee.
