This loyall convert carefully did strive,
To make Religion and true vertue thrive:
By his example many Fryars went
To seek for Christ, and leave their discontent:
They banish'd former errors, to imbrace
The truth, and fill themselves with heav'nly grace:
But sudden death made Boquines heart to faint;
He liv'd a Convert and he dy'd a Saint.
