The Life and Death of John Wigandus, who dyed Anno Christi 1587.

To warme his spirits by th'inlivning fires
Of sacred fuell, and he alwayes stood
Engag'd to that which heav'ns blest mouth call'd good;
He was a man whose life, and conversation
Were well sufficient to adorne a Nation
With good examples: nothing could devorse
His ready lips from the belov'd discourse
Of heavenly matters, till at last he cry'd
My God receive my soul, and so he dy'd.
